672 Ibn Qotaybah's Adah al KtitiV on Arabic Astronomy. [Dec. 



man becomes at the same time invisible, and this is the meaning of the 

 term "it sets." Fourteen mansions are constantly visible in the hemi- 

 sphere of the heaven which is above the earth, the other fourteen 

 mansions are concealed under the earth, in the other half of the heaven. 

 To every two and one third mansion corresponds our sign of the 

 zodiac. The mansions of the shara^an, bo^ayu and one third of the 

 thorayya correspond to Aries, &c.
