"MATHNAOUI ou Methnevi (in Persian and Turkish: Mesnevī). C’est le nom d’un des plus fameux Livres de l’Orient, composé en vers Persiens sur un grand nombre de différentes matières de Religion, d’Histoire, do Morale, et de Politique.

"Il a été composé par Gelaleddin Mohammed, fils de Mohammed, Al Balkhi, Al Konoui, environ l’an 600 de l’Hegire.

"Les surnoms de Balkhi et de Konoui sont donnés à cet Auteur, parcequ’il était natif de la ville de Balkh en Khorassan, et qu’il vint s’établir ensuite dans celle de Cogni en Natolie.

"Ce fut dans cette même ville qu’il institua un ordre de Derviches plus spirituels que les autres, lesquels on appelle ordinairement Mevlevis, qui font leur Capital de l’ouvrage de leur Maistre, auquel ils ne portent guères moins de respect qu’ à l’Alcoran. C’est pourquoi on donne aussi souvent au Mathnaoui le surnom de Mevlevi.

"Il y a un grand nombre de Commentaires Persiens et Turcs sur ce Livre, dont la poésie est estimée si excellente, que tous ses vers en sont cités, comme autant de sentences."—D’Herbelot, Bibliothèque Orientale.
