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.…
