The quotation from the poet Mir is from a translation by Professor Ahmed Ali, and that by Professor Speiser is from *The Beginnings of Civilization in Mesopotamia*, Supplement to *Journ. Amer. Orient. Soc.*, 1939. The substance of my comments on the Harappā sculpture is taken from my article in *The Burlington Magazine*, CX (1948), 33–37, by permission of the publishers, and the quotation on the character of Harappā art is from my *Some Ancient Cities of India* (1945), 16.
