The book includes a preface by Weston, in which he discusses the origins and characteristics of Persian poetry, as well as a glossary of Persian terms used in the distichs. Overall, Bayt-I Laylah is a valuable resource for those interested in Persian poetry and language.And May Be Easily Remembered.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
