Contamination measurement — T-hafez-ghazals-radif-R55-v1
Run with tools/dependence_check.py against all three published hands the arm codes, on the
whole rendering (356 tokens) against each hand's whole book.
| pair | shared 7-grams | 12-grams | 15-grams | longest run | verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| lead ~ Leaf 1898 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 3 (and of the) | clean |
| lead ~ Bell 1897 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 4 (how comes it that) | clean |
| lead ~ Payne 1901 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 8 (what is the price of ruby wine the) | clean |
The verdict is clean on the project's own rule and the eight-token run still has to be reported,
because of what it is a run of.
sh131 was selected by a mechanical rule that excluded Leaf's twenty-eight and could not exclude
Payne's, because Payne's ode numbering is Brockhaus's and no map from Brockhaus to the
Qazvini–Ghani text existed when the poem was chosen. Payne translated this ghazal. His version
was opened only after the rendering and its log were written; the freeze is the commit that carries
this file's sibling.
The run is the whole of one hemistich but one word. Payne 1901:
What is the price of ruby wine ? The jewel of the wit.
The lead:
What is the price of ruby wine? The very jewel of the wit.
The Persian is بهایِ بادهٔ چون لعل چیست؟ جوهرِ عقل — what is the price of wine like ruby? the jewel
of reason. Word for word, بها → price, بادهٔ چون لعل → ruby wine, جوهر → jewel, عقل →
wit. Every element but the last is close to forced; عقل → wit is not, and two hands a
century apart chose it independently. This is the same phenomenon RS-20260828 §6.2 recorded at
fourteen tokens between two models, one rung down and between a model and a human. It is recorded
and not investigated: the measurement programme on contamination is closed (S082), and no
published figure in this session depends on the lead's independence from Payne — the arm's evidence
about carriage is coded off the published hands mechanically and the lead's rendering is a craft
report, not a third opinion.
What the measurement does not license. The lead's rendering may not be used as an independent comparator for Payne's on this ghazal, and it is not used as one.
