v3.c12.3197

The great polymath of thirteenth-century Iran, Naṣīr al-Dīn wrote voluminously in Arabic and Persian on the exact sciences. Of interest to us here is his *Risālat al-uṣṭurlāb* in Persian (see C. A. Storey, *Persian Literature*, vol. 2, pt. 1, London 1958, pp. 52–53), of which there is a Devanāgarī transliteration under the title: *Yantrarājaparīkṣā* of Nāsiruddīna Muhammada Ṭūsī. Manuscript:
