was written by one George, a presbyter of the Greek church, in 1205. It was cursorily collated by Wetstein and Scholz, and agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension. 8. The CODEX REGIUS 312. (formerly Colbertinus 648.) was written in the fourteenth century by one Cosmas, a monk. It was cursorily collated by Wetstein and Scholz, and agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension.

9. The CODEX REGIUS 307. (Colbertinus 681.), of the thirteenth century, agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension. It was cursorily collated by Wetstein and Scholz. Wetstein states that this manuscript and No. 10. are both imperfect.

10. The CODEX REGIUS 287. (Colbertinus 721.), of the eleventh century, agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension, and was cursorily collated by Wetstein and Scholz.

11. The CODEX REGIUS 309. (Colbertinus 1265.), of the thirteenth century, is imperfect in the beginning and end. It was cursorily collated by Wetstein and Scholz, and agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension.

12. The CODEX REGIUS 310. (Colbertinus 824.), of the thirteenth century, appears to have been written for the use of the church of Constantinople. It is imperfect in the beginning and end, and agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension. It was cursorily collated by Wetstein and Scholz. 13. The CODEX COISLINIANUS 31. is substituted by Dr. Scholz for the Colbertinus 1241., which Wetstein (and after him Griesbach) had numbered 13., because that manuscript, which is now the Codex Regius 1982., does not contain an evangelisterium. The Codex Coislinianus 31. is very neatly written in gold uncial characters, as far as the seventh leaf; thence to the twenty-second it is written with vermilion; and the rest of the manuscript is written with ink, and ornamented with figures. It follows the Constantinopolitan recension, and was collated by Scholz.

14. The CODEX REGIUS 315. (Colbertinus 1282.), of the fifteenth century, was cursorily collated by Wetstein and Scholz. It agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension.

15. The CODEX REGIUS 302. (Colbertinus 1824.), of the thirteenth century, is defective in the beginning and end. It was cursorily collated by Scholz, and agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension.

16. The CODEX REGIUS 297. (Colbertinus 2465.), of the twelfth century, is very imperfect. It agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension, and was collated by Wetstein and Scholz.

17. The CODEX REGIUS 279. (formerly Colbertinus), of the twelfth century, is imperfect at the end. It follows the Constantinopolitan text, but has some Alexandrine readings; and was cursorily collated by Scholz.

18. The CODEX LAUDIANUS D. 121. (Bodl. 4. of Dr. Mill's notation) is of the twelfth or thirteenth century according to Griesbach, but of the thirteenth century according to Scholz. It is written in large and elegant characters, in two columns, the initial letters and titles being gilt. It is imperfect in the beginning and end, and some leaves are also lost out of the middle of the volume. Scholz states that its text for the most part agrees with the Alexandrine family: it was collated by Mill, and more accurately by Griesbach, who discovered numerous readings which had been overlooked by Mill.

19. The CODEX BODLEIANUS 5. originally belonged to Parthenius, patriarch of Constantinople, by whom it was given to Heneage Finch, Earl of Winchelsea, ambassador to the Porte in 1661. It was presented to the university of Oxford by Edward Hyde, Earl of Clarendon, chancellor of that university. It is very neatly written in the thirteenth century, and for the most part agrees with the Alexandrine recension, and was collated by Mill and Griesbach.

20. The CODEX LAUDIANUS 4. of Dr. Mill, in the Bodleian library marked Laud. C. 79., was written in the year 1047. It agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension, and was collated first by Mill, and afterwards by Griesbach, who states that he found scarcely any readings which had not been noticed by Mill and Wetstein.

21. The CODEX Seldeni 4. of Mill, in the Bodleian library 3386., noted Arch. Seld. B. 56., though characterized by Mill as ancient, cannot be dated earlier than the thirteenth century. A few fragments only of this manuscript now remain. It agrees with the Constantinopolitan recension, and was collated by Mill and Griesbach.

22. The CODEX SELDENI 5. of Mill, in the Bodleian library 3384., noted Arch. Seld. B. 54., is of the twelfth century. The chief part of this manuscript consists of homilies of the
