(9) 1. 46. Sequuntur in eodem codice : προλεγόμενα τῶν προγυμνασμάτ των Aphthonii sc. ἐξήγησις τοῦ μύθου etc. Begins : ἀνασκευὴ ὠνόμασται. The names and fragments of the authors cited are similarly copied out. These scholia are a portion of the same as those edited by Walz. Rhet. Gr. Vol. II. p. 1. sqq. See p. 25. (10) f. 47, 48 a. Sequuntur in eodem Cod. προλεγόμενα τῶν στάσεων. f. Sopatri. The scholia are fully copied out. Begins : Ends : ὁ τὸ τῆς ῥητορικῆς βιβλίον συντεταχὼς Ερμογένης. τρίτον τὸ τῶν ἰδεῶν. The author is Maximus Planudes. See Walz. Rhet. Gr. Vol. v. pp. 222— 230. The present MS. ends at p. 228. (11) ff. 48 b-52 b. ‘Σχολ. εἰς Ερμογένους στάσεις. Begins : πολλῶν ὄντων. The compiler has merely copied out the places where the Scholiast refers to other authors. The scholia are evidently those of Maximus Planudes, edited by Walz. Rhet. Gr. Vol. v. pp. 232 sqq. (12) ff. 53 a-67 b. Eod. Cod. περὶ λογογραφίας, περὶ ἐπιστολῶν, περὶ στίχων εἰσαγωγίμων. In marg. Christianum fuisse constat, nec quid amplius: nonnullos citat auctores quos alibi vix comperies.” Inepte. Begins : πᾶσα λόγου ἰδέα ἐκ μερῶν ὀκτὼ σύγκειται, ἐννοίας, λέξεως, σχήματος, μεθόδου, κώλων, συνθήκης, ἀναπαύσεως, καὶ ῥυθμοῦ, περὶ ὧν μάθῃς μὲν ἐν τῷ τῶν ἰδεῶν βιβλίῳ τοῦ ̔Ερμογένους πλατύτερον καὶ σοφώτερον· ἐνταῦθα δὲ διδάξομαι σε ὡς ἐγχωρεῖ καὶ μάλιστα κατὰ τὴν σήμερον τιμωμένην λογογραφίαν. Ends: καὶ πρὸς τούτοις τὸ σύντομον. Another but an imperfect copy of this work will be found in Dd. x1. 54. A treatise περὶ ἐπιστολικῶν τύπων, by Theophilus Corydalleus, first printed at London in 1625, and afterwards at Halle, is a different, but very similar production. The author cannot have lived earlier than the xnth or xnth century, as appears by the allusions to βασιλεὺς ἀγγελώνυμος and to Ptochoprodromus. He quotes or refers to a great number of classical and medieval writers, but, so far as the former at least are concerned, seems to have preserved nothing otherwise unknown. The work appears to be unedited. (13) f. 68. 'In Eod. Cod. marg. Sopater in Hermog.' ‘Princip. στρόγγυλον σχῆμά ἐστι τόδε * * * fin. φιλόσοφος μοιχὸν εὑρὼν ἐπὶ τῇ γυναικὶ συνώκισεν αὐτῷ τὴν γυναῖκα καὶ κρίνεται παρανομίας. Ex hujusmodi thesibus consistit pars posterior notarum. Sequuntur Theophrasti characteres.' ... The compiler has noticed a few citations of authors that occur in the treatise. The early part of it is edited (without the author's name) in Walz. Rhet. Gr. Vol. ш. p. 704 sqq.; the theses are not given there. (14) ff. 68-84 a. Epitome Dionysii Halicarn. nepì ovvdéσews óvoμátwv. Ita tit. Melioris notæ liber.' Begins: δωρόν τοι καὶ ἐγὼ τέκνον φίλε Ροῦφε Μελίτιε τοῦτο δίδωμι, κ.τ.λ. Goes down to: τοιαῦτα δὲ ἐστὶ τὰ ὅμοια τοῖς καλοῖς λόγοις μέτρα καὶ μέλη, διὰ ταύτας γινόμενα τὰς αἰτίας. (i. e. within a few lines of the end of the treatise.) After this sentence proceeds another paragraph of 28 lines, which does not occur in the Leipsic edition (1829), on the names of Greek feet, beginning : σπονδεῖος ποὺς σύγκειται ἐκ δύο μακρών. And ending: δισπονδεῖος ἐκ τεσσάρων μακρῶν οἷον Ηρακλείδης. (15) ff. 84 a to the end. The compiler next remarks that in the Trinity College MS. follow Aristidis monodia in Smyrnam and Diogenis Laertii vitæ philosophorum: he then gives the various readings of part of this MS. of Diogenes, as compared with the Amsterdam edition of Meibomius (1692); but after collating as far as the end of Plato,' observes: 'Hucusque progressus sum, cum inopinato nocte intempesta Apr. 6. MS. è manu nostra abreptus est: restitit tantillum temporis ut ordinem reliquorum librorum concinnarem. Platonem sequitur Speusippus, Xenocrates,' &c. (naming them)......oi kuvikoì piλóσopol. With these words (p. 172) the MS. ends. A quarto, on paper, 80 leaves, about 35 lines on each page, handwriting the same, of the early part of the xvi1th century. I. "CATHOLICUM ad reverendi in Christo patris ac Domini mei Episcopi Bel[lo]vacensis [i. e. Beauvais] jussum." This is a GLOSSARY of 34 leaves, irregularly alphabetical; the words being chiefly Low Latin, interpreted partly in Latin, partly in French, with notes and verses illustrative of the differences in quantity, e. g., Abatis, fournier indeclinable; Abatis ad cœnam dat equis Abbatis Again: avenas. Tela manu jacere mihi non placet immo jacere Si non vis lapidem jacere dimitte jacere Uxoris tenere gremio, mammasque tenere. In the margin the pages are enumerated in regular order of some work from which this has been abridged. II. The next 46 leaves contain the Skeleton of a GREEK LEXICON, compiled apparently from several MS. Lexica with the class number in their proper library appended, as for instance, ἐκ τοῦ λεξικοῦ τῶν βοτανῶν κατὰ στοιχεῖον nu. DcccxLv.
