*258. Dresd. Reg. A. 123 (Tregelles), (Mt. 17) [xiii], 8-½ × 6-½, ff. 126, barbarously written; pict., lect., syn.
*259. Mosc. Syn. 45 (Mt. a) [xi], fol., ff. 263, Carp., Eus. t., prol., κεφ. t., Am., Eus., syn., men., from the Iberian monastery, with a commentary (Victor's on St. Mark). This is one of Matthaei's best manuscripts. His other twenty-two copies contain portions of Chrysostom, and therefore come under the head of Patristic Quotations.
Codd. 260-469 were added to the list by Scholz: the very few he professes to have collated thoroughly will be distinguished by an asterisk.
260. Paris National. Gr. 51 [xiii], 12 × 8-¾, ff. 241 (24), prol., argent., κεφ. t., κεφ., τίτλ., Am., Eus., pict., once (like Cod, 309) “domini du Fresne”; correctly written.
261. Par. Nat. Gr. 52 [xiv], 11 × 8-7/8, ff. 175, κεφ. t., τίτλ., κεφ., Am., lect., ἀναγν. (subscr., στίχ. later), once at the monastery of the Forerunner at Constantinople. Mut. Luke xxiv. 39-53. Matt. i. 1-xi. 1 supplied [xiv] chart.
*262. Par. Nat. Gr. 53 [x], 12-¾ × 9-7/8, ff. 212 (27), 2 cols., κεφ. t., κεφ., some τίτλ. (Am., Eus., harm. at bottom of page, except in Luke, John, where too Am. is later), subscr., with rare readings, like those of Evan. Λ and Evann. 300, 376, 428.
263. (Act. 117, Paul. 137.) Par. Nat. Gr. 61 [xiii], 8-¼ × 6-1/8 ff. 294 (28, 29), κεφ. t., κεφ., τίτλ., Am., lect., subscr., στίχ. Probably from Asia Minor. It once belonged to Jo. Hurault Boistaller, as did Codd. 301, 306, 314.
264. Par. Nat. Gr. 65 [xiii], 4to, 8 × 5-3/8, ff. 287 (20), κεφ. t., τίτλ., κεφ., Am., Eus., harm., subscr., στίχ., syn., with what have been called Coptic-like letters, but brought from the East in 1718 by Paul Lucas. The leaves are misplaced in binding, as are those of Cod. 272. At the foot of every page is a harmony like those in Codd. E, Wd. See p. [58], note 2 (Burgon).
Of these copies, 265-270, Burgon states that the grand 4to Cod. 265 seems to contain an important text, 270 a peculiar text, though less beautiful externally than 266, 267, 269. Cod. 268 in double columns has Eus. t. very superb, but pict. of Evangelists only sketched in ink. Cod. 269, once belonging to Henry IV (in which the last leaf of St. Luke is missing), is in its ancient binding, and is full of very uncommon representations of Gospel incidents.
265. Par. Nat. Gr. 66 [x], 9-7/8 × 7-½, ff. 372, κεφ. t., τίτλ., κεφ., Am., Eus., once belonged to Philibert de la Mare.
