This miniature is not found in any other recorded copy of the Khamsa of Nizami.
The text on the folio follows the death of Khusraw and talks of the inevitable demise of man and the futility of attachment to the world. Just below the miniature, a story about Plato is recounted. It describes how Plato was asked why he constantly cried. In response he replied that his body and soul had grown accustomed to each other and he was thus mourning their eventual separation.
