  This paper amends and revises some parts of Chinese Poetic Collections from Dunhuang written by Xu Jun. This paper identifies some authors of some works by means of textual research: P.2673 Chu du ling guo shaozhou lingjiu guangguo er si qi siyuan xian gjie gu tong shi 初度嶺過韶州靈鷲廣果二寺其寺院相接故同詩 andJiang shang ji qing 江上羈情 belong to Song ZhiWen; P.3906 Pinshi shuqing 貧士述情 comes from the handwriting of Geshuhan; and Damoxing 大漠行 may have been written by Li Ang. This paper supplements some of these manuscripts with other manuscripts.
