Interestingly the name of the treatise's author is mistranscribed from the undotted Arabic original as al-Tayrīzī (see T-S 8J34.4 (PGPID 7720) for the same kind of error, and in fact the same scribe may have written both NLI 577.2/8 and T-S 8J34.4, with the differences attributable to the difference between a book hand and a documentary hand).
