Description
It is with some diffidence that I venture to approach a subject which has already met with such able handling at the hands of others far more masters of the language and literature of which they were treating than myself, and I
do not imagine that the present work will be found to contain anything that is not already known to the Pushtoo scholar. My only object in compiling it has been to facilitate a further study of the language on the part of such as
may have only as yet commenced it, and to enlist generally the interest of those as yet unacquainted with it, Whether in England or India, by a rendering, however bald and inadequate, of some of the more interesting pieces which its literature contains.
