At the start of the 7th century, Isidore of Seville produced De natura rerum, a Christianised book of astronomy and natural history dedicated to the Visigothic king Sisebut. About a century later, Bede produced a work of the same title, partly based on Isidore's work but apparently ignorant of Lucretius' poem.
