[3] I have confined my illustrations almost entirely to passages exhibited in the plates. I have notes of many other examples quite as pertinent, but do not include them here, believing that those presented amply prove my point.

[4] For an example, see Plate I (fol. 273). In the last regular line of the page, after writing caelestis essentiae particeps est, the scribe first omitted the words de die—caelestis essentiae particeps est (an exceedingly easy haplography) and then added them, with signs of reference, in the margin immediately below. As the error is one of sight and not of hearing, he must have had a text before him.

[5] Plate II (fol. 231^v) contains a striking instance. After the citation of St. Basil, the author bethinks him of another possible interpretation of his words (An aliud ex uerbis ipsius—intelligendum) and sets it forth in the enlargement. It is not probable, I believe, that the author dictated this forthwith to the scribe. As the existence of O has been proved, it is more natural to assume that the enlargement had already been inserted there.

[6] E.g., fol. 59 (I have no photograph). The added quodam in l.10 of fol. 231 (Plate II) is not by I. See below, note 10. Ut arbitror in the right margin seems exactly the thing that an author tucks in when revising and qualifying his work. But see below p. 138.

[7] Plate III contains a specimen (fol. 64). At first this hand looks like that of the text, but it is really different. The corrections are, I believe, by r¹ himself. They had been made in O, I infer, but at first were not observed by r¹. The heading De agere et pati is by a hand of the thirteenth century or later (= h).

[8] See Plate IV (fol. 15). As in the previous specimen, this hand is similar to that of the text, but not identical with it. The hand h adds three headings.

[9] Fol. 232 (Plate VIII). r⁵ then collated the work of r⁴ with O, adding quodam in l.10, and perhaps correcting consequentius to consequentias in l.12.

[10] Fol. 58^v (Plate IX).

[11] See fol. 81, Plate XI (= Plate I in Pal. Forsch.).

[12] Fol. 106 (Plate X).
