590. Brit. Mus. Add. 19,389 [xiii], 4-¾ × 3-½, ff. 60 (26), κεφ., _Am._, _lect._, St. John’s Gospel only, elegantly written by Cosmas Vanaretus, a monk. (Greg. 503.)

The foregoing Additional MSS. in the British Museum were examined and collated (apparently only in select passages) by Dr. S. T. Bloomfield for his “Critical Annotations on the Sacred Text” (1860), designed as a Supplement to the ninth edition of his Greek Testament, and comprising an _opus supremum et ultimum_, the last effort of a long and honourable literary career. He has passed under review no less than seventy manuscripts of the New Testament, twenty-three at Lambeth, the rest in the British Museum. The following have been accumulated since his time.

591. Brit. Mus. Add. 22,506 [A.D. 1305], 9-½ × 7, ff. 279 (22), κεφ. _t._, _pict._, κεφ., _lect._, τίτλ., _Am._, _subscr._, στίχ., ἀναγν., written by Neophytus a monk of Cyprus, was bought at Milos by H. O. Coxe of a Greek who had it from a relative who had been ἡγούμενος of a Candian monastery. A facsimile is given in the new Museum Catalogue. (Greg. 645.)

592. Brit. Mus. Add. 22,736 [June, A.D. 1179], 9-½ × 7-½, ff. 226 (24), 2 cols., _syn._, _prol._, κεφ. _t._, _pict._, κεφ., _lect._, τίτλ., _Am._, written by John ἀναγνωστης, with peculiar, almost barbarous, illuminations. (Greg. 688.)

593. Brit. Mus. Add. 22,737 [xii], 8-¼ × 6, ff. 313 (20), κεφ. _t._, κεφ., not τίτλ., _lect._, _subscr._, στίχ., _syn._, _men._, with decorations in very deep lake. (Greg. 689.)

594. Brit. Mus. Add. 22,738 [xiii], 6-¾ × 4-5/8, ff. 237 (23, 24), _Carp._, _Eus. t._, κεφ. _t._, κεφ. (τίτλ., _lect._, _syn._, _men._, by another hand), _Am._, _pict._, rough and abounding with itacisms. Two rude pictures of Evangelists have been effaced. (Greg. 690.)

595. Brit. Mus. Add. 22,739, has a rather modern look [xiv ?], 7-3/8 × 5-3/8, ff. 275 (22), _Carp._, _Eus. t._, κεφ., _t._, κεφ., _pict._, τίτλ., _Am._, _lect._, στίχ., ἀναγν., with rough pictures and illuminations. (Greg. 691.)

596. Brit. Mus. Add. 22,740 [xii], 8 × 6, ff. 237 (23), _prol._, κεφ. _t._, _pict._, κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _Eus._ (in blue), exquisitely written, said to greatly resemble Cod. 71 (gscr) in text, with illuminated headings to the Gospels. _Mut._ Luke ii. 7-21, and after τίτλ. of St. John. This MS. with Evst. 269, 270, 271, 272, and Evann. 592, 597, was bought of Sp. Lampros of Athens in 1859. (Greg. 692.)

597. Brit. Mus. Add. 22,741 [xiv], 10 × 7-¾, ff. 208 (22), _Eus. t._, _Carp._, κεφ. _t._, κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _subscr._, _orn._, _prol._ (here called προγράμματα, a term we have not noticed elsewhere). _Mut._ Mark i. 27-43; ii. 2-16; John vii. 1-xxi. 25. (Greg. 693.)

598. Brit. Mus. Add. 24,112 [xv], 11-½ × 8-½, _chart._, ff. 211 (33, 34), (7-¼ pages Gr. and Lat.), κεφ. _t._, κεφ., _lect._, _subscr._, στίχ., ἀναγν., _syn._, _men._ Bought at Puttick’s, 1861. (Greg. 694.)

599. Brit. Mus. Add. 24,373 [xiii], 9-¼ × 7-½, ff. 299 (22), _syn._, _men._, _Carp._, _Eus. t._, κεφ. _t._, _prol._, _pict._, _orn._, κεφ., τίτλ., _lect._, _Am._, _Eus._, _subscr._, very beautiful. _Mut._ Matt. i. 11-xv. 19. Long _lect._, ἀρχ. in marg., τέλ. in the text. Bought of H. S. Freeman, Consul at Janina, in 1862. (Greg. 695.)

600. Brit. Mus. Add. 24,376 [xiv], 10-¾ × 8-¼, ff. 350 (19), 2 cols., κεφ. _t._, _pict._, κεφ., _lect._, ἀναγν., some _Am._, _subscr._, στίχ., _syn._, _men._ Remarkable _pict._ of the Annunciation and of the three later Evangelists, Gospel headings left blank. See Evst. 273-7. (Greg. 696.)

601. Brit. Mus. Add. 26,103 [xiv], 8 × 6, ff. 242 (25), _orn._, κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._ (in gold), _pict._ (John), was found in a village near Corinth, and bought of C. L. Merlin, our Vice-Consul at Athens, in 1865. Beautifully written in very black ink, the first page of each Gospel being in gold. (Greg. 697.)

602. Brit. Mus. Add. 27,861 [xiv], 6-½ × 5, ff. 186 (19, 20, &c.), κεφ. _t._, κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _lect._, _subscr._, _syn._, _men._, from Sir T. Gage’s sale, 1868, rough and dirty, with many marginal notes to supply omissions. St. Matthew’s Gospel is wholly lost. No _pict._, but ornamentation in faded lake. (Greg. 698.)

603. (Act. 231, Paul. 266 and 271.) Brit. Mus. Add. 28,815 [x or xi], 11-½ × 8-½, ff. 302 (30), κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _Eus._, _lect._, _pict._, sumptuously bound with silver-gilt plates. This noble fragment was bought (as were Act. 232, Evst. 279, 280) of Sir Ivor B. Guest in 1871, and contains the Gospels, Acts, Catholic Epistles, Romans, 1, 2 Corinthians, Galatians, the rest of the original volume being evidently torn out of the book when already bound. In the same year 1871 the Baroness Burdett-Coutts also imported from Janina in Epirus sixty-seven leaves containing the rest of St. Paul’s Epistles and the Apocalypse (B.-C. II. 4, Paul. 266, Apoc. 89), which fragments were described in the second edition of the present book. Mr. Edward A. Guy, of Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, U.S.A., on examining the Museum fragment in 1875 with my book in his hand, concluded that the two portions originally formed one magnificent copy of the whole New Testament, and when I brought the two together, I saw that the illuminated heading and initial capital on the first page of B.-C. II. 4 (Eph. i) was worked off through damp on the _verso_ of the last leaf (302) of the Museum copy, and the red κεφ. of Gal. vi on the top of B.-C. II. 4, leaf one, _recto_. In the larger fragment we find two _pict._ of St. Luke (one of them before the Acts), one of St. John, with illuminated headings. _Carp._, _Eus. t._, &c. must have perished, as the first page opens with Matt. i. 1. It has τίτλ. in gold letters on purple vellum, a Harmony at the foot of fol. 17 b-18 b, and many brief marginal scholia. _See_ Paul. 266 (B.-C. II. 4), which is at present five miles off, in the Library of Sir Roger Cholmeley’s School, Highgate. (Greg. 699.)

604. Brit. Mus. Egerton 2610 [xii], 5-¾ × 4-¼, ff. 297 (19), about thirty letters to a line, _Carp._, _Eus. t._, κεφ. _t._ (Matt., Mark, Luke), τίτλ., _Am._, _Eus._, _pict._ (beautifully executed). First noticed by Dean Burgon, bought for the Museum in 1882, and collated by Mr. H. C. Hoskier, “Full Account, &c.,” D. Nutt, 1890. According to Mr. Hoskier’s analysis it contains no less than 270 quite unique readings, siding at least twenty times alone with D, eleven with B, six with א, six with Evan. 1, twenty-nine with Evan. 473. It has 2724 variations from T. R. There are besides a vast number of almost unique readings, e.g. Luke xi. 2, for which Greg. Nyss. is about the only authority (Hoskier). (Greg. 700.)

605. (Act. 233, Paul. 243, Apoc. 106.) Zittaviensis A. 1 [xv], _chart._, ff. 775 (30), _prol._, κεφ. _t._, κεφ., τίτλ., _subscr._, στίχ., _vers._, given to the Senate of Zittau (Lusatian Saxony) in 1620, contains the canonical books of the Old Testament down to Esther, with 1 Esdras, 4 Maccabees, Judith, Tobit, and the whole New Testament. Matthaei collated the Old Testament portion for Dean Holmes’s edition of the Septuagint (Cod. 44), and saw its great critical value. It was examined, as so many others have been, by Dr. C. R. Gregory. (Greg. 664.)

The next two were bought for the Bodleian in 1882: they came from Constantinople.

606. Oxf. Bodl. Gr. Misc. 305 [xi], 9-½ × 7-¼, ff. 149 (27), _pict._ (Matt., Mark), κεφ., _Am._, _Eus._, few _lect._ (later), _subscr._ (Matt.), _orn._, _Mut._ Mark xvi. 19 (_post_ καί) 20. The passages Matt. xvi. 2, 3; John v. 4; vii. 53-viii. 11 are obelized in the margin. (Greg. 707.)

607. Oxf. Bodl. Gr. Misc. 306 [xi], 7-¼ × 6, ff. 200 (32, &c.), _Eus. t._, κεφ. _t._, _pict._, κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _Eus._, much cropped in binding. _Mut._ (1), fol. 1; (2) tops of pages containing τίτλοι; and (3) Quaternion of 8 ff., Matt. xx. 15-xxiv. 22. (Greg. 708.)

608. Brit. Mus. Add. 11,859-60 (palimpsest) is a Typicum or Rituale [xiv or xv], 10 × 7-¾, ff. 39 + 29 (uncertain), from the Butler collection, having written under it an earlier cursive text [xiii] containing, in 11,859, Matt. xii. 33-xiii. 7; xvi. 21-xvii. 15; xx. 1-15; 15-xxi. 5; Mark x. 45-xi. 17: 198 verses; and in 11,860, only twenty-seven verses of the Catholic Epistles, James 1-16; Jude 4-15. This is Act. 234. (Greg. 1274?)

609. Camb. Univ. Libr., Hh. 6. 12 [xv], 8 × 5-¾, _chart._, ff. 182 (20, &c.), κεφ. _t._, _prol._, _subscr._ This must be Scholz’s 1673 (N. T., vol. i. p. cxix), but it contains the Gospels only, not the Acts, as he supposes. (Greg. 552.)

610. Oxf. Bodl. Barocc. 59 [xi], 8-¼ 5-½, ff. 6 (21), 1 _chart._, κεφ. _t._ (John), κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _lect._, containing Luke xxiii. 38-50; xxiv. 46-53; John i. 30-iii. 5 in a book of other matter [xv], _chart._ (Greg. 526.)

611. Rom. Angel. D. 3. 8, olim Cardinalis Passionei [xi], 9-5/8 × 6-½, ff. 442 (21), _prol._, κεφ. _t._ St. Luke with Theophylact’s commentary, described with facsimile by Vitali in Bianchini’s “Evan. Quadr.” vol. ii. pt. 1, pp. 506-40, 563, 560. (Greg. 848.)

612. B.-C. I. 11 [xii], 3-½ × 2-½, ff. 112 (25-28), is a very small and beautiful Ὠδεῖον, containing the Magnificat and Benedictus, besides the 151 Psalms of the Septuagint version, and the Hymns of Moses (Ex. xv. 1-14; Deut. xxxii. 14-43), of Hannah (1 Sam. ii), of Habakkuk (ch. iii), Isaiah (ch. xxvi), Jonah (ch. ii), with that of the Three Holy Children. Many such books are extant, of which this is inserted in our list as a specimen. _See_ 5pe, note.

John Belsheim, editor of the Codex Aureus, found at Upsal in 1875, and described to Burgon in 1882, together with Act. 68, three manuscripts in the University Library there containing the Gospels only.

613. Upsala 4, Sparvenfeldt(264) 45 [xi], 5-7/8 × 4-½, ff. 208 (25), _Eus. t._, κεφ. _t._, _pict._, last leaf later, bought at Venice in 1678. (Greg. 899.)

614. Upsala 9 [xiii], 9-½ × 7-1/8, ff. 288 (22), _pict._, given by a Greek priest in 1784 to A. F. Stiertzenbecker, who bequeathed it to the University Library. (Greg. 900.)

615. Upsala 12, Björnsthal 2 [xii], 6-¾ × 4-7/8, ff. 328 (31), _syn._, _men._, contains the Gospels, Acts, and Epistles, being Act. 237, Paul. 274. (Greg. 901.)

616. Upsala 13, Björnsthal 3 [xii], 6-¼ × 4-¾, ff. 230 (24), _prol._, κεφ. _t._ (Greg. 902.)

These two last and Act. 236 were bequeathed by Professor J. Björnsthal to the University Library.

617. Oxf. Oriel, MS. lxxxiii [xi or xii], 7-¾ × 5-¾, ff. 236 (22, 23), 2 cols., κεφ. _t._, _pict._ (cut out), τίτλ., _lect._, _Am._, _Eus._, _syn._, _men._, written in gold letters. _Mut._ in many places. Brought in 1878 by Capt. J. Hext from Corfu, and given by him to Mr. Daniel Parsons, who gave it to the College as a “joint gift.” (Greg. 618.)

618. Camb. Add. 720 [xi], 5-½ × 4-¼, ff. 278 (19, 20), _Am._, _Eus._, κεφ., τίτλ. (fragments of κεφ. _t._), _lect._, _syn._, _men._, _pict._ But _Carp._, _Eus. t._, κεφ. _t._ of Matt., and perhaps _prol._ are apparently lost. _Mut._ Matt, xxviii. 1-20; Mark xv. 29-Luke iii. 33. In a later hand is Luke xxiv. 46-53. (Hort and Bradshaw.) (Greg. 672.)

619. Camb. Add. 1837 [xii or xiii], 8-1/8 × 6-½, ff. 164 (19), injured in parts by damp. Κεφ., fragment of κεφ. _t._, _lect._, ἀναγν., _subscr._, στίχ.

620. Camb. Add. 1879. 11 [xii], 9 × 6-¾, ff. 4 (26), containing Matt. x. 42-xii. 43. _Am._ (not _Eus._), κεφ., τίτλ. _Lect._ are in a later hand. (Hort and Bradshaw.) (Greg. 674.) From Tischendorf’s collection, as is also:—

621. Camb. Add. 1879. 24 [xiii-xiv], 8-1/8 × 5-¾, ff. 2 (25), containing Matt. xxvi. 20-39 and ὑπόθεσις and verses before St. Mark. Κεφ., τίτλ., _lect._ (Hort and Bradshaw.) (Greg. 675.)

The Rev. H. O. Coxe, late Bodley’s Librarian, though quite unable to purchase any of the literary treasures he was commissioned to inspect in 1857, added considerably by his research to our knowledge of manuscripts in the East. A list of them was given in groups by Dr. Scrivener in the third edition of this work: but for various reasons they will be found separately placed amongst the ensuing MSS., to fill up gaps which have been since discovered in the supplementary list of cursive manuscripts that was bound up in the beginning of the last edition.

The Evann. 622-735 were reported to Dean Burgon from several Libraries in reply to his sedulous enquiries. Upon subsequent examination by Dr. C. R. Gregory on the spot, many of them were seen not to be Evangelia, but instead of that commentaries of St. Chrysostom, or other commentaries, or Evangelistaria, or MSS. containing other matter. Thus—including the list of the Abbé Martin, who extended Dean Burgon’s numeration up to 776—the following must be excised: 643-665, 667, 673, 677-679, 681, 682, 685, 686, 688, 689, 695, 700-702, 706, 711, 712, 715-722, 724-728 (including 726 which Dr. Scrivener noticed as a duplication of 611), 731, 733, 734, 758, 760, 763, 771, 772, 775, 776. Gregory, Prolegomena, pp. 794, 795. The editor has inserted other MSS. in their places, being especially those found by the late Rev. H. O. Coxe in his travels, and enumerated in his Report to Her Majesty’s Government.

622. (Act. 242, Paul. 290, Apoc. 110.)
