text:
The Irish Astronomical Tract is Irish text created in the first half of the 14th century. It was written in Early Modern Irish, and is based on a Latin translation of an Arabic work De Scientia Motus Orbis by Masha'allah ibn Atharī. Of its 40 chapters, 27 correspond to chapters in Masha'allah and the rest to various classical authors. The name of its author and place of composition is unknown, but it is dated by its reference to the use of spectacles.
