Notes
About: On astrology. Pp. [73-74] seem to be a separate faṣl in the same hand on the leap-year. | Contains diagrams and tables.
In Maghribī script.
Text and notes rubricated; marginal notes mostly in hand of copyist, some in another, non-Maghribī hand; tables in pp. [76-78] are in a different hand and probably were not originally part of this ms.
