Dear Dwight

There is a Spanish translation by Feliciano de León with a Latin edition 
in https://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/libro?codigo=156554

I'm not very convinced by it, but that's what we have for the moment. I 
know the passage well because I have used it in my work on Andalusi 
Hebrew metrics. Federico Corriente discussed this passage in his book 
https://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/libro?codigo=159868

I hope I have been helpful. I am not in Spain at the moment and cannot 
send you pictures of those passages, but if you still can't find them in 
September, write to me again and I will be happy to send you what you 
are looking for.

Best regards

Pepe
