Rare second edition of an unusual grammar book for the Hindustani language, which was spoken in what is now known as Pakistan, Bangladesh, and parts of Nepal, Bhutan, and Iran. It was specifically intended for Portuguese missionaries who were working in the declining Mughal Empire (1526-1858). This small book, which has clearly been used, offers an interesting insight into the work of these missionaries. While it focusses mostly on the basics of the language, like numbers, colours and common verbs, there is also a section for religious words, like the virtues, the names of Christian figures and important biblical terms.The spine is damaged with the front board nearly detached (two of three sewing supports are stil intact). The edges and corners of the boards show slight signs of wear. Somewhat foxed throughout. Otherwise in good condition.l Innocencio 3, p. 161; Porbase 505006 (4 copies BnP); WorldCat 39689413 (3 copies). Mid-19th-century quarter gold-tooled tanned sheepskin, marbled paper sides. With the title in gold on the spine, marbled endpapers. With a woodcut vignette on the title page. Pages: [2], 150 [2] pp.

Pp. (xx), 152. Engraved vignette on title. Text in Hindi with interlinear Latin text. Old half green morocco, flat gilt spine. First edition of an important type specimen of the Hindustani language. It contains the Lord's Prayer, the Hail Mary and the Apostles' Creed and deals with the language and script used at the University of Kasí or Benares, in the Indian province of Bihar. The script is rendered in Kaithi characters, a more current form of the Nagari characters, and was written by Cassianus da Macerata Beligatti (1708-91). The types were cut already at the start of the Propaganda Press but not used until a century later. They were first displayed in Georgius' "Alphabetum Tibetanum" of 1759. Birrel & Garnett 12.
