Hieronymi. 8vo, 488 leaves in double columns, 50 lines on a full page, bound in morocco mosaic lined with red morocco richly gilt. (Hardy-Mennil.) MANUSCRIPT on very fine vellum, written in small clear characters by a German scribe; capitals in red and blue, those beginning the chapters having graceful arabesque ornaments; illuminated initials of each book most quaint in design, exquisite in proportion, and rich in color and execution. This Bible contains all the canonical books of the Old and New Testaments, and the Apocrypha, though not in the order adopted later by the Council of Trent. The distinguishing feature of the Ms. is that it contains six books of Esdras, three with the canonical books and three at the end of the volume with the Apocrypha. The text terminates with Oratio manasses, which is followed by a table (29 leaves in 3 columns) entitled Interpretationes hebraicorum nominum. Sæc. XIV. BIBLIA SACRA LATINA cum præfationibus Sancti Hieronymi. 4to, 412 leaves in 2 columns of 50 to 54 lines, brown morocco. (Riviere.) MANUSCRIPT on abortive vellum, fine and pure, beautifully written in minute characters, and ornamented with delicate arabesque capitals. All the prefaces of St. Jerome, the canonical books of the Old and New Testaments, and a full table of Hebrew words with Latin interpretations,' are found in this valuable Manuscript. Sæc. xv. (?) BIBLIA SACRA LATINA cum præfationibus S. Hieronymi. Small 4to, 308 leaves in double columns, 59 lines on a full page, original binding with clasps. MANUSCRIPT by a German scribe, executed upon fine vellum in characters of wonderful regularity. Capitals throughout in red and blue. This Bible contains all the books of the Old and New Testaments except the Psalms. The text begins In noë domī ihn xpī, and ends with Explicit libr apocalypsie. Following the Apocalypse is the usual table of Hebrew words, 29 leaves in 3 columns. Sac. XIV. BIBLIA SACRA LATINA cum præfationibus S. Hieronymi. Small folio, 525 leaves in 2 columns, 46 lines on a full page, old calf. MANUSCRIPT well executed on vellum, with large and small capitals in colors. It contains the prefaces of St. Jerome, and all the books of the Old and New Testaments. At the end of the Interpretationes is a note dated die x msm januar año a natē dni MCCCCXXJ; and upon the last leaf but one are the words: ista biblia manuscripta est ani MCCCC (?) XXIIIJ. BREVIARIUM CAMALDOLENSEM. Incipit breviaria secundum ordine camalduēsem. Small 4to, stamped leather binding. MANUSCRIPT very closely written upon 476 leaves of vellum, 2 of which have illuminated borders, and capitals containing miniatures. Sac. XV. BREVIARIUM. Incipit ordo breviarii frm minorū secundum consuetudine romanie curie. Small 4to, vellum binding, old and worm-eaten. MANUSCRIPT upon 266 leaves of vellum, each page divided in two columns by rulings. A full column contains 62 lines, written in Roman minuscules of gothic form, ornamented with capitals in red and blue, and mingled with rubrics. The neumæ, or musical notes, have no regular staff, but are placed at a greater or less height above a single red line, which separates them from the words of the chant. This peculiar notation and style of text indicate that the Ms. was executed near the end of the 13th century. On one of the fly leaves is a note which reads as follows: Anno dni M.CC.LXXXIX. die x aplis, Ego fr Bartholus bläcellus ītravi ordine bli fräcisci. [For example of this musical notation, see SILVEStre, Pl. cxlvi.] BREVIARIUM ordis fratrum minorum secundum consuetudine Romane curie. Small 4to, 492 leaves in double columns, vellum.
