220. Vind. Caes. Ness. 337, formerly 33 [xiv], 12mo, 3-7/8 × 2-5/8, ff. 303 (22), in very small letters, κεφ., τίτλ., Am., lect., syn.
221. Vind. Caes. Ness. 117, formerly 38 [x or xi], 11 × 7-5/8, ff. 251 (41-43), with commentaries (Chrysostom on Matt., John; Victor on Mark, Titus of Bostra on Luke), to which the fragments of text here given are accommodated.
222. Vind. Caes. Ness. 180, formerly 39 [xiv], 8-½ × 6, ff. 346 (32), on cotton paper, mut. Contains fragments of the Gospels, with a commentary (Victor's on St. Mark). This and the last were brought from Constantinople by De Busbeck.
223. Vind. Caes. 301, formerly 40 [xiv, Greg. x], 7 × 5-½, ff. 115 (32), contains fragments of SS. Matthew, Luke, and John, with a catena. Codd. 221-3 must be cited cautiously: Alter appears to have made no systematic use of them.
224. Vind. Caes. Suppl. Gr. 97, formerly Kollar. 8 [xii], 5-½ × 4-5/8, ff. 97 (19), κεφ. t., κεφ., τίτλ., Am., lect., syn., men., subscr., only contains St. Matthew. This copy came from Naples.

Codd. 226-233 are in the Escurial, described by D. G. Moldenhawer, who collated them about 1783, loosely enough, for Birch's edition. In 1870 the Librarian, José Fernandez Montana (in order to correct Haenel's [pg 222] errors) sent to Mr. Wm. Kelly, who obligingly communicated it to me, a complete catalogue of the four copies of the Greek Bible, and of nineteen of the New Testament “neither more or less,” then at the Escurial, with their present class-marks. I do not recognize, either in his list or in that subjoined, the “Codex Aureus containing the Four Gospels in letters of gold, a work of the early part of the eleventh century,” spoken of in the Globe newspaper of Oct. 3, 1872, on occasion of the fire at the Escurial on Oct. 2, which however did not touch the manuscripts. Perhaps that Codex is in Latin, unless it be Evst. 40. See also Emmanuel Miller, Cat. des MSS. Gr. de la Bibl. de l'Escurial, Paris, a.d. 1848.
226. (Act. 108, Paul. 228.) Cod. Escurialensis χ. iv. 17 [xi], 8vo, ff. ?, on the finest vellum, richly ornamented, in a small, round, very neat hand. Eus. t., κεφ. t., lect., pict., τίτλ., κεφ., Am., Eus. Many corrections were made by a later hand, but the original text is valuable, and the readings sometimes unique. Fairly collated.
227. Escurial. χ. iii. 15 [xiii], 4to, ff. 158, prol., κεφ. t., Am., pict. A later hand, which dates from 1308, has been very busy in making corrections.
228. (Act. 109, Paul. 229.) Escurial. χ. iv. 12 [xiv, Montana xvi], 8vo, ff. ?, chart. Once belonged to Nicolas Nathanael of Crete, then to Andreas Damarius of Epidaurus, a calligrapher. Eus. t., syn.[247]
