* All night they were listening to the sound of the reed and the rud
* Everyone who came to the banquet, paid his respect to the Khusraw
* In his treatise, Abd al-Qadir Maraghi mentions the rud: "Rud Khwani: Up to half of its surface is covered by skin, and frets are fastened to it; it has four strings. It is played like an ancient ud."
