Princeton records this book with Mina in Tehran in 1371 [1992]. In his Aasoo conversation, Rabihavi discusses a woman in love who is sent to a victim’s family after her cousin kills someone. He describes the treatment of a woman as payment; that author discussion supplies context without settling the book’s precise bibliographic subtype.
