Because the text is almost entirely unpointed, the transcriptions below are approximate.
Contents:
Begins (f. 25v, lines 2-4):
قال ولما كان استخراج القمر [؟] من الأوتار والأوتار من المقر شيئًا إنما نقدر عليه
ههنا [؟] بالجدول من الحساب أخذناه عن الجداول المثبتة في الزيجات هي القمر [؟]
أقول اعلم أن حساب المنجمين لما أرادوا تقدير الدوائر على الأفلاك وغيرها ...
Ends (f. 28r, lines 16-18):
... ولا ينافي لك أن ينقص من نصف والاصدار الا استكرم الخلف على ما يظهر
لك عن الإمتحان كما كان الزيادة في المسئلة المذكورة في ساص [؟] الدائرة غير ممكن
أيضًا [؟] وقد سبق بحقيقة وثتلوه الجداول
