MX INTRODUCTION TO THE AMERICAN EDITION.

Bede (d. 735); newly published by Tischendorf, in the ninth vol. of his Monumenta Sacra, 1870. Very valuable.

E, for the Pauline Epistles. Codex SANGKRMANENSIS ; Graeco - Latin ; formerly at Saint -Germain des Pres, near Paris ; now at St Petersburg. In the Greek a mere copy of D (Claromont.) after it had been altered by several hands. Ninth or tenth century.

F, for the Gospels. Codex BOREELIANUS ; once posses- sed by John Boreel (d. 1629), Dutch ambassador in London under James I. ; now in the library of the University at Utrecht. Not important.

F, for the Pauline Epistles. Codex AUGIENSIS ; Graeco- Latin; at Cambridge; published by Dr. Scrivener, 1859, in common type. Ninth century.

G, for the Pauline Epistles. Codex BOERNERIANUS ; was cither copied from F (Uort), or from the same archetype (Tischendorf, Scrivener). Ninth century. It is a part of the same MS. as A of the Gospels. Purchased by Prof. C. F. Boerner at Leipsic, 1 705 ; in the Royal Library at Dresden.

L, for the Gospels. Codex REGIUS ; published by Tisch- endorf, 1846; written in the 8th century ; full of errors in spelling, but very remarkable for its agreement with B and Origen. Now in Paris.

P, for Acts, Epistles, and Revelation, with some defects. Codex PORFIRIANUS, a palimpsest of the ninth century, in possession of Archbishop Porfiri at St. Petersburg ; edited by Tischendorf, 1865 and 1869. It generally confirms A and C, but often X against all the rest.

Z, for Matthew. Codex DUBLINENSIS (Dublin) ; sixth century ; one of the chief palimpsests. Text in value next to x and B. Edited by Barrett, 1801 ; better by T. K. Ab- bott, 1880.
