Divan-i Hasmi - ديوان حصمى

This volume contains the poetry of Hasmi, a poet who does not appears in the various tezkereler available. It is clear, however, from the chronograms that he lived during the latter half of the 18th century CE. He was evidently associated with Maraş, judging from two of the poems. The gazeller run from ff 1v-36r, followed by müfredat (ff 36r-40r), and two poems entitled Na't-i Nebi (ff 40r-43r). After this, several poems bear their own titles: Der sitayiş-i Huban-i Medine-yi Maraş-i ferruh-bahş (ff 43r-44r); Kaside berayi baz amadan-i mabbub-i fakır (ez?) sefer-i Mosku (ff 44r-45r); Bahariye (ff 45r-v); İd-i udhiye (ff 45v-46v); Der mediha-yi Ser-Bevvab-i Ağa-yi muhterem (ff 46v-47r); Der tercih-i duhan ve tazyif-i enfiye mi guyad (f 47r). Next are chronograms (ff 47r-52r) that range in date from 1185 AH (1771-72 CE) to 1201 AH (1786-87 CE), and that are concerned primarily with births and deaths. Finally, there is a section with tahmisat (ff 52r-53v). The text contains 2 unvans of a very localized school of art, as well as gold-ruled and coloured borders. The manuscript was likely copied in the late 18th or early 19th centuries CE.
