INTRODUCTION. 


The  localities  whence  the  Coptic  mamiscripts  now  in  Europe  have  been  acquired  are 
very  various.  External  evidence  as  to  the  ultimate  provenance  of  those  which  appear 
upon  the  markets  of  Cairo  and  Upper  Egyptian  Towns  or  which  are  brought  thence  by 
dealers,  is  difficult  to  obtain  and  usually  untrustworthy.  Better  evidence  may  sometimes 
be  had  from  the  manuscripts  themselves :  scribes'  colophons  or  dedications  to  particular 
churches  or  monasteries  are  to  be  read  in  many  Bohairic  books  and  survive  too  in  a 
certain  number  of  the  scattered  remnants  of  Sa'idic  parchment  volumes ;  while  in  the 
papyrus  letters  and  documents  from  Upper  Egypt  incidental  names  often  fix  the  place 
of  origin  within  narrow  limits. 

The  sources  fall  mainly  into  two  classes,  corresponding  in  some  degree  to  the 
ecclesiastical  and  secular  literature  represented  by  the  MSS.  Of  these,  the  first  embraces  a 
number  of  monasteries  and  churches,  some  long  since  ruined,  others  still  in  use,  to  the 
libraries  of  which  the  volumes  have  belonged ;  while  the  second  consists  of  the  rubbish- 
mounds  of  villages  or  the  sand  covered  ruins  of  private  dwellings,'  wherein  '  waste-paper,'  in 
the  shape  of  countless  papyrus  documents,  has  been  discovered.  A  third  source,  which 
preserved  to  us  so  much  of  the  literatiire  of  pagan  Egypt — the  cemeteries — has  yielded 
scarcely  anything  for  the  Christian  period. 

Sa'idic  Manuscripts: — As  regards  the  literary  MSS.  in  the  southern  dialect, 
the  vast  majority  uf  thode  upon  parchment  has  been  obtained,  as  is  well  known,  from 
the  famous  monastery  of  Shenoute,  *'  Tiie  White  Monastery,"  at  Atripe,  VV.  of  Sohag. 
The  hidden  treasure  is  first  beard  of  towards  the  middle  of  the  18th  century.'  Apparently 
the  earliest  of  the  leaves  to  arrive  in  Europe  were  among  those  obtained  through  his 
Propagandist  missionaries  by  Cardinal  Stephen  Borgia,'  whose  great  collection  was 
gradually  formed  during  the  succeeding  decade  and,  after  his  death  in  1804,  partitioned 


>  Tbu  ia  doabtfuJ.  The  nuoM,  in  tlocamenta  thu«  found,  would  often  seem  to  point,  here  too,  rather  to 
nonaalic  or  clerical  thmn  Mcolar  writers. 

'  Ch.  Ptrrjr  {A  View  o/  the  Lrvant  1743,  p.  370)  had  heard  of  (or  seen !)  many  parchment  MSS.  at  the 
Whit*  Mooaatery.  Quantitica  of  them  periahed,  it  woa  said,  in  the  Mameluke  raids,  early  in  liist  century 
(R.  ConoD,  Monatteritt,  ed.  1849,  135). 

*  The  first  atatement  about  the  Borgian  collection  is  in  the  Cardinal's  Fragm.  Copt,  ex  Aetit  S.  Coltulhi,  1781, 
pp.  3,  4,  where  it  is  stated  that  the  fragt.  edited  was  obtained  with  a  few  others  in  the  ruins  of  a  monastery 
yroft  Thdxu.  If  this  were  accurate  howeTer,  we  could  scarcely  believe  these  to  have  belonged  to  the  White 
Monastery.  But  as  to  the  body  of  the  collection  there  cannot  be  this  doubt.  C/.  also  J.  G.  C.  Adler,

X  INTRODUCTION. 

between  the  College  of  the  Propaganda  at  Rome '  and  the  Biblioteca  Borbonica  at  Naples. 
About  the  same  time  C.  G.  Woide  was  acquiring  a  number  of  similar  leaves,  to  be  eventually 
bequeathed  to  the  Clarendon  Press,*  while,  almost  simultaneously,  a  smaller  number 
came  into  the  possession  of  St.  Mark's  Library  at  Venice.'  A  few  years  later  *  the  nucleus 
of  the  Paris  collection  had  been  acquired.  In  1838  Robert  Curzon,  afterwards  Lord 
Zoucbe,  procured  parts  of  several  volumes,  not  indeed  in  Upper  Egypt,  but  which  once 
belonged,  as  internal  evidence  proves,  to  Shenoute's  monastery ;  while  the  Rev.  (afterwards 
Archdeacon)  Henry  Tabtara  had,  about  this  time,  collected  certain  parchment  leaves," 
for  which  the  same  2>^'ovenancc  is  demonstrable.  These,  or  some  of  them,  subsequently 
passed  to  Lord  Crawford,  who  has  recently  parted  with  them  to  Mrs.  John  Rylands  of 
Manchester.  Further,  the  Royal  Library  at  Berlin,  the  Imperial  Library  and  that  of 
M.  Golenischef  at  St.  Petersburg,  and  the  collection  of  the  Archduke  Rainer  at  Vienna 
(now  incorporated  with  the  Hofbibliothek)  have  each  during  the  past  quarter  of  a  century 
or  so  obtained  more  or  less  extensive  batches  of  these  parchments.  But  no  collection 
can  now  rival  that  of  the  Bibliotheque  Rationale  in  Paris,  which,  having  slightly  increased 
by  1872,*  became  possessed  of  the  bulk  of  the  great  find  made  at  the  White  Monastery 
in  1883,^  smaller  portions  of  which  eventually  found  their  way  to  the  Museums  at 
Cairo*  and  Leyden'  and  to  the  British  Museum. 

The  first  instalment  to  reach  here  was  that  brought  in  1886  by  Mr.  H.  Wallis 
(Or.  3367) ;  a  far  larger  quantity  was  obtained  in  1888  through  Dr.  Budge  (Or.  3579 — 
3581),**'  to  whom  indeed,  more  than  to  any  other,  the  British  Museum  owes  its  large 
acquisitions  of  Coptic  MSS. 

The  small  chamber  in  the  N.B.  corner  of  the  conventual  church,  wherein  the  mass 
of  leaves  lay  when  discovered  in  1883,  may,  from  its  inscriptions,  be  fairly  identified  as 
in  fact  the  ancient  library."  The  contents  of  this  library  in  antiquity  cannot  now  be 
estimated.  I  have  however  computed  that,  in  the  combined  collections  of  Europe 
and  Egypt,  there  are  at    present  some    9000   leaves  or  fragments  of  leaves,  which  once

belonged  to  it.  Of  these  about  490  are  in  the  present  collection.  How  many  volumes 
are  here  represented  it  is  of  course  impossible  to  say.  The  pagination  often  shows 
that  the  volumes  must  have  been  of  a  considerable  size:  I  have  noted  eight  leaves  or 
groups  of  leaves  reaching  to  a  page-number  above  400,  as  many  to  above  500,  three 
to  above  700,  one  to  above  900.' 

Where  and  under  what  conditions  these  parchment  volumes  were  produced  we  do 
not  know,  except  as  regards  one  definite  group,  written  within  a  limited  period.  That 
Bot  all  were  originally  destined  for  the  White  Monastery  is  evident  from  certain  of  the 
extant  colophons:  no.  162  beloiv  was  presented  to  a  church  at  Tabanhor;  in  Paris  similar 
references  to  the  churches  of  the  Virgin  •  in  the  desert  '*  or  '  the  desert  of  Apa  Shenoute,'* 
of  Severns  at  Rifeh,*  of  the  martyr  Pshemniao  near  Ahmim,'  and  in  a  fragment  of  M. 
Golenischefs,  to  that  of  S.  Cosmas  at  Fayyflm,  show  that  the  library  was  enriched  by 
acquisitions  from  other  libraries.*  Elsewhere  we  find  a  record  of  texts  diligently  sought 
in  other  moDasteries  and  copied  for  the  Whife  Monastery.'  The  group  above  referred 
to  is  the  work  of  a  school  of  scribes,  resident  or  originating  at  the  town  of  Touton,  in 
the  S.  of  the  FayyGm;'  and  we  find  that,  not  the  scribes  only,  but  occasionally  the 
donors  also  of  these  HSS.  come  thence.*  Whether  there  subsisted  any  special  connection 
between  the  White  Monastery  and  this  town  wo  cannot  tell :  the  existence  of  a  contempo- 
rary Bohairic  MS.  from  Nitria,  likewise  signed  by  a  Touttin  scribe,'"  may  indicate  that  its 
school  of  calligraphy  had  an  extended  reputation  (t;.  below).  In  the  present  collection 
those  fragments  referred  for  comparison  to  Ciasca's  pi.  xiii  may  be  taken  generally  to 
belong  to  this  group.  A  slight  dialectal  impurity  also  betrays  in  many  cases  their 
place  of  origin. 

The  librarj-  of  the  White  Monastery  existed  however  before  the  time  when  copies 
upon  parchment  had  replaced  the  earlier  papyrus  volumes.     Shcnoute's  frequent  citations

xii  INTRODUCTION. 

of  the  '  papyri '  (xapTTjs)  existing  in  his  and  his  predecessors'  time,'  refer  to  that  earlier 
state  of  things,  little  if  any  remnants  of  which  however  have  survived.  The  papyri  in 
the  archaic  Ahmim  dialect,  spoken  presumably  in  the  surrounding  district  until  Shenoute 
made  the  Sa'idic  fashionable,  are  said  upon  good  authority  to  have  come  from  this 
monastery;*   but  no  others  have  been  traced  to  it. 

Sa'idic  MSS.  upon  parchment  have  reached  us  from  other  sources  besides  Shenoute's 
monastery.  The  present  collection  contains,  besides  the  Fistis  Sophia,  the  origin  of  which 
is  imknown,  a  series  of  leaves  and  fragments  (Add.  14,665,  Add.  17,183)  which,  as  the 
Syriac  texts  wherewith  they  have  been  covered  show,  were  long  in  the  hands  of  Nitriau 
monks,  though  it  is  to  be  presumed  that  their  original  Coptic  text  was  written  in  Upper 
Egypt ;  and  further,  a  number  of  others  (nos.  944,  945,  966  &c.)  which,  from  their 
association  with  papyri  from  Ashmunain,  may  be  assumed  to  have  come  thence.  The 
Cairo  Museum  again  has  recently  obtained  a  number  of  fragments*  from  the  ruins  of  a 
church  near  Siut.  Again  the  Curzon  fragments  108,  109,  110,  while  obtained  in  Nitria,* 
have  internal  evidence  showing  that  parts,  at  any  rate,  of  them  once  belonged  to  the 
White  Monastery. 

The  literary  papyri  have  been  obtained  in  various  localities  of  Upper  and  occasionally 
of  Middle  Egypt  ;'^  but  many  in  the  present  collection,  especially  those  acquired  early 
in  the  last  century  {e.g.  nos.  46,  52,  115,  170,  179,  270 — 277),  bear  no  record  of  their 
provenance,  though  it  may  be  assumed  that  those  presented  by  Sir  G.  Wilkinson  came 
from  Thebes,  while  it  is  probable  that  one  at  least  of  Salt's  papyri*  had  a  like  origin. 
The  larger  collections  of  papyrus  documents  have  usually  been  accompanied  by  literary 
fragments  which  we  may  suppose  to  have  been  discovered  with  them  ;  thus  nos.  986  ff., 
993  ff.  would  be  from  Ashmunain  (Hermopolis),  nos.  933  ff.  perhaps  from  Ahmim. 
Among  the  Fayyum  documents  too  a  f6w  Sa'idic  literary  texts  have  occurred  {e.g. 
nos.  32,  278,  361). 

There  is  one  other  group  of  MSS.,  neither  upon  papyrus  nor  parchment,  which 
deserves  notice:  the  paper  volumes,  first  of  all  Sa'idic  texts  to  be  brought  to  Europe, 
which  served  as  an  introduction  here  to  the  study  of  this  dialect.  They  are  associated 
together  by  their  material,  general  appearance  and,  particularly,  by  the  type  of  script  (c/. 
Zoega's  9th  class)  which  they  have  in  common  and  by  being  provided  with  Arabic  versions. 
Two  of  them  are  moreover  dated,  viz.  Bodleian,  Hunt.  393  (A.D.  1393)'  and  Paris  MS.  44

(1389).'  Among  these  we  may  confidently  place  our  no.  491  and  scarcely  less  certainly 
no8.  6  and  330.  These  three  come  from  Nitria  and  we  should  not  hesitate  to  assign  the 
same  origin  to  the  rest  of  the  group,  were  it  not  that  MSS.  in  a  closely  similar  hand 
and  style  have  since  been  brought  from  the  White  Monastery'  {e.g.  no.  977). 

Of  writing  materials  and  their  preparation  we  learn  little  from  the  texts.  Papyrus 
books  appear  to  have  been  among  the  articles  of  manufacture  in  the  "White  Monastery.* 
The  price  of  a  Scxat  of  papyrus  is  perhaps  given  in  no.  711.  The  preparation  of  skins 
is  referred  to  in  no.  550  and  part  of  a  treatise  on  that  subject  is  preserved  in  a  papyrus 
in  the  Phillipps  collection.*  Parchment  appears  very  rarely  to  have  been  coloured.  The 
fine  Gospels  MS.,  no.  1 12,  dyed  a  bright  saffron,  is  the  only  example  known  to  me.*  The 
Phillipps  papyrus  shows  that  the  pen  employed  was  a  reed,  and  elsewhere  a  voTapios  with 
his  KoXa/xapioc  is  mentioned.*  Illustrations  arc  practically  unknown  in  Sa'idic  parchment 
bookif ;  rarely  the  figure  of  a  saint^  or  emperor  *  has  been  added  on  the  final  page. 
Coloured  initials  and  ornaments  are  however  fsequent.' 

The  size  of  the  leaf,  both  in  papyrus  and  parchment,  varied  much.  Of  the  former, 
one  of  the  largest  was  no.  951,  when  complete  (14|^xl0|^  in.),  and  one  of  the  smallest 
no.  955  (2|x3  in.):  of  the  latter,  the  above  named  saffron  Gospels  (no.  112)  measures 
17iX  13J  in.  and  no.  216  is  16Jx  12|  in.,  while  nos.  936,  941,  943,  947  are  all  very  small,

Ije  inferred  from  the  fragment  no.  160.

The  training  of  the  scribes  was  entrusted  to  the  archdeacon  ^°  and  their  work  was 
carried  on  in  '  the  writing  library ' "  or  '  house  of  caligraphy.'  "  Boys  learned  the  elements

were  early  entrusted  with  the  copying  of  MSS.  :  the  writer  of  no.  817  was  only  eleven 
years  of  age. 

The  work  of  more  scribes  than  one  can  occasionally  be  discerned  in  a  single  book,

INTRODUCTION. 


X7 


When  the  writing  of  a  volume  was  completed,  the  sheets  were  stitched  together  and 
encased  in  a  binding  composed  of  stiff  layers  of  discarded  papyri,  with  an  outer  covering 
of  stamped'  or  cut'  leather,  which  was  sometimes  held  closed  by  straps."  Whether  the 
books  in  the  library*  were  ranged  on  shelves  or  in  niches,^  suspended  on  pegs'  or  laid 
in  boxes,'  we  do  not  know.  At  one  time,  in  the  White  Monastery,  their  respective  places 
seem  to  have  been  indicated  by  inscriptions  upon  the  walls.*  One  or  two  Coptic  book- 
lists are  extant,  the  fullest  being  that  upon  a  Theban  ostracon  of  the  6th  or  7th 
century  and  comprising  some  eighty  numbers,  presumably  independent  volumes."  Two 
shorter  lists,  from  Thinis  and  the  Fayyflm,  have  already  been  referred  to.  An  inventum 
of  the  property  of  8.  Theodore's  church  at  Ashmunain'"  includes  31  books,  while  the 
books  of  a  monastery  at  J6me  are  an  important  feature  in  its  heritable  property." 
ThoBO  who  should  venture  to  remove,  exchange  or  sell  a  book  from  the  library  are 
threatened  with  the  curses  of  Moses  and  of  the  church." 

When  we  turn  from  the  literary  to  the  documentary  texts  in  the  Sa'idic  dialect, 
we  find  them  written,  with  scarcely  an  exception,  upon  papjTus ;  the  few  upon  parchment " 
and  paper'*  belong  almost  always  to  Middle  Egypt.  Leather  however  is  an  exception 
to  this  rule ;  one  series  of  such  deeds  comes  from  Thebes,"  another  from  Nubia.'*  The 
papyri  we  owe  principally  to  two  sources :  Ashmunain  (Hermopolis),  which  has  of  late 
years  yielded  a  vast  number  of  documents  (nos.  1013  ff.),  for  the  most  part  of  the 
7th  and  8th  centuries,  and  Jdme  (W.  Thebes),  whence  we  have  the  well-known  8th 
century  cartnlary  of  the  monastery  of  S.  Phoebammon  (nos.  375  ff.).  Of  another  interesting

INTRODUCTION. 


nothing  but  some  copies  by  the  late  C.  W.  Goodwin,'  although  no.  467  and  its  fellows 
are  related  to  it  in  time  and  place. 

This  twofold  provenance  corresponds  roughly  to  two  varieties  within  the  Sa'idic 
dialect,  unrecognizable  in  the  literary  texts,  but  which  the  documents  allow  us,  to  some 
extent,  to  distinguish.  The  language  of  both  Theban  and  Hermopolite  documents  shows 
archaic  features  reminiscent  of  the  earlier  idiom  of  Ahmim  or,  more  exactly,  of  a  period 
when  the  dialect  of  all  southern  Egypt  had  features  which  eventually  characterized 
the  so-called  dialect  of  Ahmim  alone.  The  most  prominent  of  these  are  the  frequent 
substitution  of  a  for  o  in  both  initial  and  accented  syllables,  the  retention  in  many 
cases  of  e  for  3  and  the  addition  of  -e  to  verbal  stems  and,  more  notably,  to  the  prefix 
and  suffix  of  the  2nd  pers.  plural.  The  first  and  second  of  these  features  is  mainly  confined 
to  the  Theban  papyri;'  the  last  is  conspicuous  in  those  from  Ashmunain  (Hermopolis),^ 
which  are  moreover  often  marked  by  a  confusion  of  \  and  p,  though,  unlike  the  usage 
in  the  Fayyum,  normal  a  is  here  replaced  by  p,  instead  of  normal  p  by  a.  Other  dialectal 
peculiarities  in  Upper  Egyptian  texts  are  exemplified  in  nos.  521  and  1123,  although 
the  former  has  been  here  classed  among  those  of  Middle  Egypt ;  while  nos.  972,  974, 
975  are  instances  of  the  curious  jargon  to  which  Erman  first  drew  attention.* 
Apparently  no  distinctive  features  separated  the  language  of  the  most  southern  districts 
and  Nubia  from  that  of  the  Theban  neighbourhood.  Nos.  445,  446  are  the  only  texts 
in  this  collection  from  the  extreme  south,  but  from  Nubia  we  have  the  series  nos. 
447 — 456  ;  all  alike  are  in  a  pure  Sa'idic. 

Papyrus  documents  are  of  all  sizes  and  shapes,  from  the  small  square  (no.  1167, 
3^X21  in.)  or  oblong  strip  (no.  1121,  3ixl2  in,,  no.  1160,  2fxl3|  in.),  to  the 
lengthy  roll  (no.  402,  7  ft.  4in.  X6^  in.)."  The  roll  form  is  preferred  for  Theban  legal 
texts,*  while  those  from  Ashmunain,  being  always  smaller,  are,  with  rare  exceptions,' 
folded.  Both  forms  were  tied  with  a  ribbon  of  papyrus,  upon  which  a  clay  seal  was 
affixed  (v.  PI.  15).  Neither  letters  nor  financial  documents  (accounts  &c.)  reach  the 
dimensions  of  the  legal  papyri.  Among  the  largest  are  nos.  1109,  1124,  1139,  averaging 
about  14J  X  6|^  in.  Rarely  a  letter  is  written  upon  a  strip  of  papyrus,  presumably 
to  be  rolled  up  (nos.  1024,  1102,  1152). 

After  folding,  the  address  of  a  letter  was  written  upon  the  outer  side,  a  space 
(often  filled  by  a  rectangular  ornament*)  being  left  midway  in  the  words,  to  allow  the 
ribbon  to  be  passed  across  it.

INTRODUCTION.  xvii 

The  text  of  both  deeds  and  letters  is  written,  as  in  contemporary  Greek  documents, 
almost  invariably  in  lines  crossing  the  papyrus  fibres,  i.e.  parallel  to  the  *  height '  of  the 
leaf.  Only  where  an  earlier  text  has  already  occupied  the  other  side  will  the  writing 
be  found  running  parallel  to  the  fibres.  !More  than  one  column  of  text  is  never 
found   upon   one   face   of  a   papyrus. 

Ahmimic  and  Middle  Egyptian  Manuscripts :— The  Catalogue  comprises 

only  three  specimens  of  the  ancient  dialect  which  was  early  supplanted  by  the  Sa'idic 
(nos.  492,  1223,  1224);  and  of  these  the  first  was;  found  in  the  Fayyum,  while  the 
others  were  at  any  rate  acquired  with  the  large  Ashmuuain  collection.'  Of  private 
documents  in  Ahmtmic  none  are  as  yet  known. 

We  have  on  the  other  band  some  forty  literary  fragments  in  Middle  Egyptian 
dialects,  whereof  the  best  defined  variety  is  associated  with  the  Fayyilm.  Only  the 
older  -MSS.  have  a  palaeographical  interest :  some  of  these  show  forms  of  the  letters 
!^,  tr  distinguishing  theirs  from  the  later  scripts,'  which  are  not  intrinsically  different 
from  Sa'idic  t^'pes.^ 

Middle  Egyptian  private  documents  are  plentiful  and  naturally  exhibit  all  degrees 
of  dialectal  variation  between  their  influential  southern  and  northern  neighbours. 
Classification  has  been  correspondingly  difficult,  nor  is  the  method  I  have  adopted 
more  than  moderately  satisfactory.  As  regards  their  material  aspects,  what  has  been 
flaid  of  Sa'idic  documents  is  equally  applicable  here. 

BohairiC  Manuscripts :— The  collection  of  MSS.  in  the  northern  dialect  is 
similar  to,  though  less  rich  than  that  in  Paris :  both  consist  almost  wholly  of  paper 
books,  and  texts  upon  parchment  are  in  an  extremely  small  minority ;  the  great  collec- 
tion of  the  latter  at  Rome  has  no  parallel  elsewhere.  But  such  parchment  leaves  as 
the  British  Museum  does  possess  came,  like  the  volumes  brought  to  the  Vatican  a 
century  earlier,  from  the  Nitrian  monasteries.  Yet  it  may  be  doubted  whether  the  type 
of  script,  which  alone  has  been  found  in  Bohairic  parchments,*  is  not  in  origin  Fayyiimic. 
Wo  have  referred  above  to  one  MS.  of  this  class  written  by  a  Touton  scribe,  and  the 
Rylands  collection  contains  a  fragment  of  papyrus  showing  a  hand  of  exactly  this  style, 
although   the   text   is   Middle  Egyptian,  while   no.  739  {p.  PI.  11)  was   found   either   at

theaa  and  the  only  other  A(jmimic  text  known  to  me  (in  the  Unirersitj  Museum,  Aberdeen),  are  charms.  Either 
it«  archaic  character  atill  gave  the  effete  dialect  a  magical  value,  or  magical  texts  were  more  carefully  preserved

xviii  INTRODUCTION. 

Ashmunain  or  in  the  Fayyura.  Moreover  the  type  seems  to  be  practically  confined 
to  the  Dth  and  10th  centuries,  when  alone  parchment  MSS.  appear  to  have  been  produced 
in  (or  for)  these  monasteries.^ 

As  to  the  paper  volumes  and  fragments,  although  a  number  of  these,  dating  from 
all  periods,  also  came  from  the  Nitrian  desert,^  MSS.  of  this  class  have  been  procured 
in  all  parts  of  Egypt,  as  was  natural  in  the  case  of  a  dialect  dominant  throughout  the 
country  from  the  later  Middle  Ages  onwards  and  still  the  liturgical  idiom  of  the  church. 
The  types  of  script,  sufficiently  illustrated  by  the  dated  plates  in  Hyvernat's  Alhm,^ 
range  from  the  12th  to  the  19th  centuries.  The  various  styles  of  Arabic  colophon 
used  by  the  scribes  may  be  further  studied  in  the  catalogue  of  the  Vatican  collection* 
and  the  Introductions  to  Horner's  Bohairic  New  Testament. 

Private  documents  in  this  dialect  are  not  known,^  unless  we  should  regard  as  sucli 
the  hybrid  texts,  like  nos.  563,  572,  590,  1237,  1251,  which  ought  rather  to  be  con- 
sidered in  connection  with  the  Middle  Egyptian  papyri  with  which  they  were  found." 

Dating  of  Manuscripts: — It  will  be  remarked  that,  throughout  this  Catalogue, 
a  suggestion  is  scarcely  ever  made  as  to  the  age  of  the  MSS.  described :  nothing  is 
offered  beyond  a  comparison  viith.  published  facsimiles.  And  it  must  be  borne  in  mind 
that  such  comparisons  but  rarely  point  to  a  more  than  vague  and  general  likeness. 
Suspended  judgment  is  indeed  still  imperative  on  this  fundamental  question  and  little 
can  here  be  said  upon  it.  Since  the  publication,  in  1888,  of  Hyvernat's  Album  Paleo- 
graphique,  little  or  no  additional  material  has  been  forthcoming  whereby  the  tentative 
dates  there  suggested  for  Sa'idic  parchment  MSS.  can  be  tested,  nor  does  it  appear 
likely  that  such  will  now  be  brought  to  light.  Any  advance  in  the  future  will  probably 
•be  due  to  a  minuter  study  than  has  hitherto  been  made  of  the  peculiar  characteristics 
of  the  several  types  of  script.  With  the  few  available  dated  texts  as  standards 
and  such  further  assistance  as  is  to  be  had  from  a  number  of  colophons,  dated,^  yet 
almost  all  severed  now  from  the  volumes  which  they  originally  terminated,  it  should 
eventually  be  possible  to  arrange  these  types  in  chronological  sequence.  Such  a  series 
would  extend  from  a  few  specimens  of  the  square  uncials  of  the  5th  century,  over  a 
heavy  type  which  it  is  customary  to  assign  to  the  7th  or  8th,  and  so  to  the  important 


'  The  present  collection  possesses  no  dated  specimen,  but  a  series  of  colophons  in  the  Boman  collection 
demonstrates  this.

^  Boh.  ephemeral  documents  would  probably  perish  in  the  Delta  climate,  while  the  literary  texts  were 
preserved  in  the  churches.  Yet  it  is  strange  that  in  Nitria  nothing  should  have  survived.  Up  to  about  the 
7th  cent.,  moreover,  the  'Memphitic'  dialect  still  held  the  neighbourhood  of  Babylon.

datable  group  of  the  10th  and  11th  centuries.  From  this  period,  until  we  reach 
the  14th  century,  no  dated  example  guides  us.  Whether  this  remarkable  restriction 
of  dated  texts  to  some  two  centuries  is  due  simply  to  chance  or  whether  we  may 
thence  assume  that,  after  that  period,  the  library  of  the  White  Monastery  in  fact 
received  no  further  additions,  and  that  the  several  other  more  or  less  related  types  of 
script  should  likewise  be  attributed  to  those  centuries,  we  cannot  as  yet  decide.  No 
parchment  MS.  at  any  rate  is  known  which  has  been  shown  to  have  been  written  after 
the  12th  cent<jrj'.  The  group  dated  in  the  14th  century  and  referred  to  above  (p.  xii) 
as  coming  presumably  from  Nitria,  consists  entirely  of  paper  MSS.,  in  a  script  imitative 
indeed  of  certain  parchment  types,  but  easily  to  be  distinguished  from  these. 

The  dating  of  literary  (uncial)  MSS.  on  papyrus  is  even  more  uncertain  than  that 
of  the  parchment  types ;  for  here  we  have  not  the  support  of  any  dated  series,  nor 
indeed  of  one  dated  example,'  while  help  from  parallel  Greek  types  is  of  the  slightest. 
The  similarity  of  the  earlier  styles  of  papyrxis  and  parchment  hands  hardly  needs 
remark,  nor  need  we  empliasize  afresh  the  obviously  deceptive  tendency  of  copyists  to 
imitate  older  scripts  which  renders  any  estimation  of  such  hands  as  those  ou  Pll.  8,  9 
notoriously  doubtful.  A  variety  quite  as  hard  to  place  chronologically,  but  scarcely 
noticed  hitherto,*  is  that  of  the  curved  or  rounded  types  illustrated  by  PI.  10,  whose 
near  relationship  to  certain  parchment  hands  will  be   at  once  observed. 

The  Plates : — The  fifteen  plates  appended  to  this  volume  are  intended  solely  as  a 
contribution  to  earlier  Coptic  palaeography  :  merely  ornamental  MSS.  have  not  been 
included.  The  selection  has  been  moreover  made,  with  very  few  exceptions,  from  the 
papyri,  since  the  parchments  have  already  been  largely  illustrated  by  Zoega,  Hyvernat, 
Ciasca*  and  Balestri,*  whereas  but  very  few  papyri  have  hitherto  been  reproduced.  As 
a  consequence  of  this,  the  examples  have  Ijeen  chosen,  in  all  instances  but  one  (PI.  11, 
no.  739),  from  the  Sa'idic  and  Middle  Egyptian  MSS.,  those  in  the  Bohairic  dialect  being — 
with  the  conspicuous  exception  of  the  Nitrian  i>archment  codices  which  are  scantily  repre- 
sented in  our  collection — relatively  modem  and  generally,  with  the  help  of  Hyvernat's 
photographs,  tolerably  easy  to  date. 

In  place  of  the  usual  repro<luctionj  of  complete  pages  from  a  small  number  of 
specimens,  the  plates  show  fragments  or  sections  of  pages  sufficient  to  exhibit  the 
characteristics  of  fifty-five  MSS.  The  size  of  the  reproduction  is,  in  all  cases,  that  of 
the  original. 

Plates  1 — 7  show  those  MSS.  of   which    the  dates  can   be  fixed   with  complete  or

for  inclusion  in  the  present  Catalogue,  but  reproduced  here  on  account  of  being 
dated.  Lines  1 — 4  are  by  the  scribe  of  the  text.  No.  1226  :  this  type  is  little 
removed  from  that  of  150  years  earlier. 

Plate  5. — No.  380 :  lines  1 — 5  by  the  scribe  of  the  text ;  the  remainder  by  3  witnesses. 
MS.  Or.  6204  likewise  could  not  be  here  catalogued.  Lines  3,  4  show  its  date. 
The  monastery  of  Apollo,  to  which  it  relates,  is  described  as  on  the  south  of 
Hermopolis  ;   possibly  therefore  the  great  monastery  at  Bawit. 

Plate  6. — No.  514  :  the  date  is  uncertain.  The  8th  and  9th  centuries  saw  three 
patriarchs  named  [Mi]chael ;  a  fourth  sat  at  the  close  of  the  1 1th  century.  The 
script  however  much  resembles  that  of  colophons  dated  in  the  first  half  of  the 
10th  century.  It  is  to  be  observed  that  this  MS.  is  also  from  the  Fayyum 
(v.  above,  p.  xi).  No.  660  is  of  the  same  type  as  Hyvernat,  Album  x,  A.D.  1003.

appear  to  have  been  subsequently  inserted  in  blank  spaces.^  Col.  2  shows  the 
later  note  by  the  donor. 


^  Not  all  the  datable  MSS.  however  have  been  reproduced.  Of  the  dated  Jeme  documents  only  a  selection 
is  given.  The  Nubian  MSS.  (nos.  447fF.)  arc  too  ill  preserved  to  allow  of  photography.  The  date  of  no.  1213 
is  too  uncertain,  the  script  of  no.  673  too  characterless  and  clumsy  to  repay  reproduction.  Nos.  162,938  have 
already  been  photographed  elsewhere.

Plate  8. — No.  171 :  the  style  of  ornament  accompanying  initials  is  very  uncommon 
in  papyri,  but  usual  in  most  parchment  MSS.*  No.  325 :  many  of  the  Greek 
words  in  this  papyrus  have  retained  their  accents,  a  feature  almost  unique  in 
Coptic  texts.* 

Plate  9. — Nos.  1004  and  958  bear  a  strong  resemblance  to  two  types  of  parchment 
hand  ;  the  latter  especially  is  practically  identical  with  certain  of  Zoega's  4th  class. 

Plate  10. — Nos.  278  and  1219  again  have  an  unmistakable  likeness  to  parchment  types, 
not  least  to  the  dated  group  of  the  Tout6n  school.  No.  522  is  probably  among 
the  oldest  MSS.  in  the  collection.  The  script  is  strikingly  similar  to  that  of 
the  greater  part  of  the  Bruce  Papyrus. 

Plate  11. — No.  504  :  a  fragment  of  the  original  MS.  is  Berlin  Museum  P.  9108,  as 
may  be  seen  by  the  facsimile,  B.  Kopt.  Urk.,  no.  168.  In  no.  510  note  the  charac- 
teristic form  of  r«,  while  that  in  no.  498  illustrates  the  transition  from  (or  rather 
to)  the  Bohairic  form ;  cf.  the  following  number,  739  (on  which  v.  p.  xvii  above). 
No.  711  is  probably  the  earliest  known  MS.  to  show  the  letter  i).  The  hand 
is  remarkably  like  that  of  Pap.  Amherst  cxlv  (pi.  xxi),  assigned  to  the  '  late  4th 
or  early  5th  century.' 

Plate  12. — No.  1223  :  this  hand  is  comparable  in  certain  features  (e,  c)  with  the  '  1st 
hand '  of  the  Puli*  (no.  367)  and  also  with  that  of  the  Acta  Pauli.  No.  1224  is 
probably  later  than  the  foregoing.  The  forms  of  h,  k,  u,  ii,  n  point  perhaps  to 
the  6th  century.  No.  1102  :  its  e,  n,  k,  ii  and  ligatures  with  e-  show  a  relatively 
early  hand ;  so  too  the  shape  of  the  papyrus  and  the  use  of  x''-^P^'  ^°*  ^^^  ^^ 
doubtless  a  ceremonious  hand,  suitable  to  the  dignity  of  the  person  addressed. 
It  is  presumably  the  youngest  on  this  plate. 

Plate  13. — No.  1105:  may  be  in  a  woman's  hand.  No.  1113  is  on  the  other  side  of 
the  same.  No.  1147  :  post-Mohammedan  if  the  name  eio*r[B]  be  read  ;  though 
eicn'{An]  is  equally  possible. 

Plate  l.*). — No.  1214:  a  much  ligatured  and  difficult  Mid.  Egyptian  type,  of  which 
the  papyri  from  Ashmunain  show  many  specimens.  Nos.  1167  and  1137  have 
eaoh  the  clay  seal  and  fastening  ribbon  still  attached. 


The  present  Catalogue  has  occupied  a  far  longer  time  in  preparation  than  was  at 
hrst  contemplated:  printing  was  begun  in  1895.  It  is  obvious  that  the  classification 
and   description  of   such    material  as   almost   wholly  constitutes   the   extant   remains   of

xxii  INTRODUCTION. 

Coptic  literature — remains  quite  without  parallel  among  the  literatures  o£  the  Christian 
east  in  their  fragmentariness  and  dilapidation  —  must  be  a  task  of  slower  progress 
than  where  the  MSS.  to  be  dealt  with  lie  ready  for  description  in  book  form,  identified 
already  by  title  and  often  by  author's  name.  With  the  exception  of  the  Pistis,  a  certain 
number  of  the  Bohairic  books  and  of  the  legal  papyri  from  Jeme,  practically  the  entire 
collection  is  here  examined  and  described  for  the  first  time. 

The  system  upon  which  a  work  of  this  nature  was  begun  will,  if  continued  over  ten 
years,  scarcely  escape  some  modification  and,  it  may  be  hoped,  improvement.  It  was,  for 
example,  first  intended  that  I  should,  in  agreement  with  what  has  been  done  elsewhere, 
include  in  the  Catalogue  every  fragment  whereon  writing  was  legible.  It  soon  became  clear 
however  that  to  do  so  would  entail  much  waste  of  space,  and  a  considerable  number  of 
papyrus,  fragments,  whence  nothing  was  to  be  learned,  have  therefore  been  silently  relegated 
to  a  limbo.  For  a  different  reason  the  texts  of  the  J^me  documents  (no.  375  ff.)  could 
be  omitted.  An  exhaustive  publication  of  these  is  being  now  prepared  by  Professor 
St«indorff  and  myself. 

Again,  the  constant  reference,  for  palaeographical  purposes,  to  published  facsimiles, 
although  of  value  in  literary  texts,  was  seen  to  be,  in  the  case  of  papyrus  documents, 
necessarily  too  vague  to  be  of  service — the  number  of  facsimiles  available  is  still  too 
small — and  was  therefore  discontinued.  Further,  my  subsequent  acquaintance  with  other 
continental  collections  besides  that  of  Paris,  has  made  it  possible  to  identify  many 
more  Sa'idic  leaves  as  related  to  those  here  described  {v.  the  Additions  and  Cori-ections). 
And  I  may  add  that,  in  the  long  interval  between  the  printing  of  the  earlier  parts  of 
the  volume  and  its  publication,  various  works  have  appeared  elsewhere  which  otherwise 
would  have  had  a  modifying  influence  at  not  a  few  points. 

An  inconsistency  will  be  found  betweep  my  earlier  and  later  mode  of  transcribing  the 
letter  cr.  That  its  sound  came,  in  time,  to  be  almost  identical  with  that  of  i:  may  be 
undeniable ;  but  it  is  equally  demonstrable  that  at  a  relatively  early  period  (and  at 
any  rate  in  southern  districts),  this  letter  was  interchangeable  with  i-  and   k. 

A  more  serious  inconsistency  is  that,  already  referred  to,  whereby  a  misleading 
distribution  has  been  made  between  the  Sa'idic  and  Middle  Egyptian  dialects  in  regard 
to  the  papyrus  documents.  Not  a  few  of  the  texts  between  nos.  529  and  711  should 
properly  have  been  classed  as  Sa'idic.^  Their  faulty  classification  is  due  to  unreasonable 
weight  having  been  given  to  the  pretended  provenance  of  the  lot  in  which  these  papyri 
were  acquired. 

My  use  of  the  term  published,  in  reference  to  biblical  texts  needs  some  explanation. 
I  intended  thereby  to  indicate  the  previous  publication,  not  of  our  actual  MS.,  but  of 
the  same  passage  elsewhere. 

To  each  number  the  place  of  origin  or  of  acquisition  and  the  name  of  the  person 
through  whom  acquired  have,  when  ascertainable,  been  added.     Of  these,  the  first  is  too 


'  Xos.  .533,  674,  for  instance,  mention  the  town   of  Ashmunaiii. 


INTRODUCTION.  xxiii 

often  of  small  value,  indicating  iu  most  cases  merely  the  market  wliere  the  MS.  was 
bought.'  The  second,  in  combining,  as  not  infrequently,  more  names  than  one,  is 
evidence  of  the  dispersion,  in  time  as  well  as  place,  which  parts  of  one  and  the  same 
MS.  have  often  suffered. 

The  measurements  of  the  MSS.  represent  the  actual  size  of  the  leaf  or  fragment, 
at  its  extreme  points,  the  first  figure  being  that  of  the  height,  the  second  that  of  the 
width.     In  the  case  of  double  leaves,  the  size  given  is  of  a  single  leaf. 

I  must  finally  call  attention  to  a  regrettable  number  of  errors,  almost  all  relating 
to  confusions  in  the  numerical  designation  of  the  MSS.  These  I  have  been  unable  to 
rectify  except  in  the  Corrections  on  pp.  517 — 522,  which  I  trust  the  reader  will  consult. 

I  wish  in  conclusion  to  express  my  great  indebtedness  to  the  Trustees  of  the 
British  Museum  for  having  commissioned  me  to  compile  this  Catalogue,  and  so  given 
me  the  opportunity  of  gaining  a  familiarity  with  Coptic  manuscript  literature  such  as 
I  should  have  obtained  by  no  other  means. 

A  heavy  debt  of  another  sort  I  owe  to  Mr.  F.  G.  Kenyon,  Assistant  Keeper  of  the 
Dept.  of  MSS.,  who  has  patiently  read  a  proof  of  the  whole  work,  from  its  initiation. 
Such  accuracy  as  has  been  attained  in  regard  to  the  countless  incidental  Greek  words 
is  due  to  his  constant  watchfulness,  while  to  his  judgment  and  advice  I  owe  the 
avoidance  of  many  errors  and  inaccuracies.  Assistance  kindly  given  me  by  other 
scholars  is  acknowledged  in  its  place.  My  thanks  are  further  due  to  Messrs.  Gilbert 
and  Rivingfton,  and  particularly  to  their  oriental  reader,  Mr.  G.  E.  Hay,  for  the  care  and 
skill  with   which  the  printing  has  been  done.

Parchment ;  8^x8f  in.  (complete  in  width). 
The  upper  fragment  of  a  double  leaf;  not 
paged;  ruled.  The  text,  in  two  columns, 
of  about  30  lines  each,  is  written  in  plain, 
square  uncials  (c/.  Hyvernat,  Album  Sfc, 
pi.  vii.  2).  The  initials  are  larger  than  the 
rest,  u,  n,  t,  x,  where  they  begin  a  line, 
often  have  a  looped  projection  to  the  left  (as 
in  Hyvernat,  Album  Sfc,  pi.  xiii.,  no.  2). 

This  MS.  possibly  came  from  Ahmim.

and  consistent.  On  fol.  la,  col.  1,  ver.  16, 
TtooviioqiJKOTK  shows  the  same  omission

ver.  10,  the  word  con  (for  con  nto^y,  v.  the

Or.  3579A(3).— Parchment  ;  5f  X  7  in. 
The  upper  left-hand  comer  of  a  leaf ;  ruled. 
The  text,  in  two  columns,  is  written  in  neat, 
square  uncials,  and,  I  think,  by  the  scribe  of 
the  Borgian  MS.,  num.  xxii.  (v.  Ciasca,  ii., 
tab.  XXV.)  The  fragment  containing  Proverbs 
XV.,  xvi.  {v.  below)  seems  to  be  also  by  the 
same  hand.  The  initials  are  slightly  larger 
than  the  rest.  Small  scroll-ornaments  in  the 
margins  have  (subsequently?)  been  coloured 
with  yellow,  red,  and  green.

Genesis  xxix.  6 — 17  {published  by  Mas- 
pero, l.L,  p.  15,  from  a  far  less  accurate 
MS.).  The  helping-vowel  is  fully  inserted. 
The  punctuation  is  accurate  and  consistent. 
On  fol.  a,  col.  2,  ver.  10,  there  is  the  same 
omission  as  in  Maspero's  text.

Or.  3579A(4).— Parchment;  a  double  leaf,

The  text,  in  two  columns  of  26  lines  each, 
is  written  in  a  large,  coarse  character 
(c/.  Ciasca,  i.,  tab.  ii.)  The  initials  are 
enlarged.  There  are  few  stops.  This  is  a 
part  of  the  Lectionary  described  by  Maspero, 
l.L,  101,  and  respectively  precedes  or  follows 
immediately  the  passages  published  by  him 
on  pp.  31,  101,  and  118.

several  pages  belonging  to  a  Lectionary  of 
the  Old  Testament.  The  Coptic  text  is  in 
single  column  ;  opposite  it  is  an  Arabic 
version.  The  character  is  a  sloping  uncial 
(c/.  Hyvernat,  Alb^im  ^c,  pi.  ix.  2,  colo. 
phon).  Lines,  stops,  initials,  &o.,  have  been

iMccov  is  always  written  for  ihcotc,  aux\»iv

the  orthography  is  very  inaccurate,  appears 
to  be  ba<(ed  on  that  usually  found  in  Bohairic 
MSS.  (e.g.  Or.  422),  though  it  here  follows 
pretty  closely  the  Sa'idic  text. 

The  other  lessons  are  from  Job,  Isaiah, 
Jeremiah  and  Ilosea.

Parchment;  one  leaf,  12 X  lOf  in.;  paged

in  a  coarse,  upright  hand.  The  initials  are 
larger  than  the  rest  and  sometimes  orna- 
mented, while  certain  letters  in  the  top  lines 
project  into  the  upper  margin.  Paragraphs 
are  marked  as  in  Ciasca,  l.l.,  i.,  tab.  viii.,  of 
which  MS.  indeed  (=Zoega,  num.  viii)  I 
suspect  this  fragment  to  have  formed  part. 
The  paginations  of  the  two  may  be  reconciled 
by  the  supposition  that  with  each  book  a 
■fresh  numeration  was  started  (cf.  Ciasca,  ii., 
xviii.).  At  the  top  of  each  page  there  is  a 
central  cross.

columns,  of  which  col.  2,  fol.  o,  and  col.  1, 
fol.  b  are,  for  the  most  part,  lost.  The 
character  is  a  fine,  square  uncial,  greatly 
resembling  MS.  num.  vi.  of  Zoega  {v. 
Ciasca  i.,  tab.  vi.),  to  which  this  leaf  very 
possibly  belonged.  The  paragraph-mark, 
small  coloured  ornaments,  pointing  and 
forms  of  the  final  letters,  exactly  correspond 
in  both  MSS.  («.  Zoega's  description),

text,  in  two  columns  originally,  is  written 
in  an  upright  character,  closely  resembling 
Ciasca  i.,  tab.  vii.,  to  which  MS.  indeed  these 
very  possibly  belonged.  The  same  irregular 
punctuation  is  characteristic  of  both,  as  in 
iicoTCHc,  SI,  cf.  scos,  stou,  &c.  The  initials 
are  slightly  enlarged,  project,  and  are  painted 
with  red  (so,  apparently,  Ciasca,  l.l.).

Or.  4717(1).  —  Parchment;  a  complete

across  the  whole  page  in  a  sloping  character 
{cf.  Hyvernat,  Album   ^c,  pi.  x.).      It   is 


often  illegible,  owing  to  the  leaf  having 
been  pasted  into  the  binding  of  a  book. 
The  initials  are  enlarged  slightly  and  ac- 
companied by  marginal  ornaments.  The 
leaf  contains  three  of  the  ecclesiastical  Odes 
and  probably  belonged  to  a  service-book.

This  is  the  Syriac  palimpsest  described  by 
Wright  as  no.  DCCCXII.,  and  noticed  also 
by  Lagarde,  Orientalia  L,  99.*  The  Coptic 
text  is  written  in  two  columns  of  25  lines, 
in  a  plain,  square  uncial  {cf.  Hyvernat, 
Album  ^c,  pi.  vii.,  1,  which  reproduces  a  fairly 
legible  page  :  ibid.,  pi.  iii.  or  iv,  1  may  also 
be  compared).  In  the  bottom  margins  birds 
have  very  frequently  been  drawn  with  great 
delicacy,  and  somewhat  in  the  style  of 
Hyvernat,  pi.  iii.  A  plain  paragraph-mark 
is  used,  above  which  are  sometimes  added 
short,  horizontal  strokes.  The  initials  are 
sometimes  enlarged.  The  commencement 
of  each  of  the  books  which  the  MS.  contains, 
as  well  as  the  end  of  the  concluding  book,  is 
surrounded  by  an  elaborate  frame  of  regular, 
interlacing  pattern,  to  which  slight  floral 
ornaments  are  sometimes  added.  The  quires, 
of  8  foil,  each,  are  28  in  number.  The 
pagination  of  the  volume  was  apparently— 
for  uncertainty  as  to  the  exact  number  of

Or.  3579A(11).  {Formerly  Or.  3367.)— 
Parchment ;  a  single,  complete  leaf,  13^  X 
10^  in. ;  paged  oa,  ob.  Two  columns  of 
text ;  about  31  lines  each.  The  character  is 
regular  and  upright.  Most  probably  this  is 
part  of  the  Borgian  Cod.  xiii.  {cf.  Ciasca,  i., 
tab.  xiii.).  The  initials  are  enlarged,  and 
with  stops,  paragraph-marks,  the  letter  <}), 
&c.,  are  painted  with  red. 

Probably  from  Ahmim.  [H.  Wallis.] 

.Judges  xii.  7 — xiii.  6.  The  text  varies 
frequently  from  that  of  Add.  17,183. 

The  punctuation  is  that  described  by 
Ciasca,  i.,  xxiii.  (xiii.).  Atch.  xiii.  2,  there  is 
a  dividing-line,  and,  in  the  margin,  the  word 
con,  as  in  no.  3  above.

columns  of  about  31  lines  each.     The  script 


is  small  and  regular.  The  initials,  slops,  and 
abbreviating  lines  are  painted  with  red.  It 
is  part  of  the  great  MS.  of  which  other 
fragments  are  published  elsewhere  (cf.  Ciasca, 
i.,  tab.  15),  and  this  leaf  follows  immediately 
on  that  printed  by  Erman,  Oottinger  Nach-

Or.  3579A(15). — Parchment;  the  lower, 
inner  corner  of  a  leaf ;  8^  X  6J  in.  The 
text,  in  two  columns,  is  written  in  a  regular 
upright  hand  (c/.  Ciasca,  i.,  tab.  xi.).  Initials 
and  stops  are  in  red.    It  is  from  a  Lectionary.

23. 

Or.  8579A(16).— Parchment.  A  single 
complete  leaf;  11|X9  in.;  paged  n,  lil. 
The  text,  which  is  arranged  in  verses,  is 
written  in  an  upright  character  (c/.  Ciasca,  ii., 
tab.  xxvi,)  without  enlarged  initials  or  orna- 
ments. Letters  which  exceed  the  line  are 
added  above  {ef.  Ciaaoa,  ii.,  tab.  xxii.). 

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

Job  xl.  7 — xli.  9  {publi$hed  by  Ciasca,  ii.  63). 
The  helping-vowel  is  accurately  inserted. 
The  punctuation  is  systematic ;  initial  vowels, 
forming  of  themselves  syllables,  and  single, 
final  consonants  are  pointed. 

24. 

Or.  4844. — Papyrus;  18  leaves,  varying 
between  6]  X  5)  in.,  (complete)  and  3  X  -H  in. 
They  are  now  separately  framed  between  glass, 
but  when  acquired  they  formed  a  book, 
k>oseIy  held  together  by  thread.  Four  pairs 
of  leaves, — those  now  numbered  vii,  viii. ; 
xi,  xii. ;  xiv,  xvii. ;  xv,  xvi. — then  formed 
each  one  continuous  leaf.  The  script  is  very 
clumsy  and  unskilled.  This,  together  with 
the  numerous  faults  of  orthography,  make 
it  probable  that  the  MS.  is  a  modem  copy 
of  an  old  text,  written  by  a  scribe  very 
ignorant  of  Coptic.  The  leaves  are  paged 
here   and   there   as   follows  :    fol.  xiv.a,  a  ; 


fol.  xiv.b,  5  (sic) ;  fol.  xv.a,  ba;  fol.  xv.&,  r ; 
fol.  xvi.o,  r;  fol.  xvi.b,  {;  (sic)  ;  fol.  xvii.fl,  e; 
fol.  viii.6,  H ;  fol.  \.b,  ib  ;  fol.  vii.a,  ia(?)  ; 
fol.  ix.a,  11 ;  foU.  ix.6,  viii.a,  o;  fol.  xi.a,  i|(?). 
The  Roman  numerals  now  upon  the  frames 
indicate  the  original  sequence  of  the  leaves.

A  selection  from  the  Psalms.  (For  the 
corresponding  passages  already  published, 
V.  Ciasca  and  the  Rainer  Fiihrer,  1894,

the  leaves  with  reference  to  the  texts  : — 

fol.     ii.  Psalm  v.  1 — 4 

*  iii.  4—12 

X.  civ.  1—12

viii.  cxxxv.  1 — 7

The  original  from  which   these  excerpts 

were  transcribed  was  an  ancient  text ;  cf.  the 

forms  BBA.\,  A.\AOG  and  (occasionally)  iiu  =  uii. 

Misreadings  are  numerous  and  point  to  the 

great  ignorance  of  the  scribe ;  e.g.  hto'ou=

Or.  3579A(17).— Parchment;  a  single 
complete  leaf  and  two  fragments ;  fol.  3, 
13f XlOf  in.;  fol.  2,  10^X101  in.;  fol.  1, 
13^X5  in.  The  text,  which  is  arranged  in 
verses,  is  written  in  large  uncials  {cf. 
Ciasca,  i,  tab.  iv.,  or  ii,  tab.  xxiii.,  though 
both  these  are  coarser).  Initials  are  rarely 
enlarged.  There  are  red  marginal  orna- 
ments at  the  beginning  of  each  Psalm, 
the  titles  of  which,  together  with  the  8ta- 
i/(aXfiaTa,  are  in  a  smaller  character.  Fol.  la 
was  the  first  page  of  quire  r,  and  fol.  Bb  the 
last  of  quire  iie. 

There  are  no  stops.

cxviii.  24r— 38. 

(The  passages  from  Psalms  ix.,  x.,  xlviii. 
are  published  ;  v.  Ciasca.) 

The  Coptic  text  is  fully  punctuated  and 
accurately  vowelled.  At  ver.  17  is  the  word 
i-TuA  (yi/xeX).  The  Greek  text  is  without 
accents  or  breathings.  The  former  was 
written  upon  the  right-hand,  the  latter  upon 
the  left-hand  pages. 

The  Greek  version  of  Ps.  xlix.  6  includes 
the  words  of  which  the  Sa'idic  is  given  by 
Lagarde,  Psalt.  Theb.  Fragta.  (v.  Ciasca,  i. 
103). 

26. 

Or.  3579 A(l 8). —Parchment;  the  inner 
top  corner  of  a  leaf ;  7  X  5f  in.  The  text, 
in  one  column,  but  not  arranged  in  verses, 
is  written  in  an  upright  character  {cf. 
Ciasca,  i.,  tab.  iii. ;  but  the  resemblance  is  not 


very  close).    The  titles,  Siai/iaX/Aara,  abbrevia-

are  large  initials  in  red  and  yellow.

for  eqe-. 

27. 

Or.  3579A(19). — Parchment;  a  single  leaf,

(of  the  Psalms)  is  arranged  in  verses,  and  is 
written  in  an  upright,  somewhat  uneven 
character  {cf.  Ciasca,  i.,  tab.  x.).  It  formed 
part  of  a  Lectionary,  in  which  each  lesson 
commenced  with  a  very  large  initial  in  red, 
yellow  and  green,  and  with  a  title  in  red. 
In  the  lower  margin  are  birds  and  flowers, 
coarsely  painted  in  red  and  yellow.

hardly  be  a  part  of  the  same  MS.  What

by  the  corresponding  Coptic  passages.

Some  of  the  stanzas  terminate  with  aiuja  (8o|"a),  others  with  Koiim  {koX  vvv). 

The  dialect  of  these  texts  is  not  pure;  e,g.  (2)  Subjunct.  weq-,  (5)  ii«u  =  um. 

The  hymns  are  palimpsests  upon  two  earlier  texts,  of  which  that  still  legible  (uo.  4) 
was  from  a  Sa'idic  version  of  Theodosius*  Encomium  on  Michael.  The  passages  referring 
to  Daniel,  to  John  the  Baptist  and  Zacharias  and  to  the  Three  Children  are  discernible.'

Or.  1320. — Parchment,  51  foil.,  in  quires 
of  6  foil,  each  ;  in  a  modern  binding  ;  paged 
A — iiA  and  a — ka  ;  about  13J  X 10^^  in.  The 
text,  in  two  columns  of  30 — 35  lines  each, 
is  written  in  a  regular,  upright  hand,  while 
the  titles  are  throughout  in  sloping  characters 
(v.  Hyvernat,  Album  ^c,  pi.  ix.,  2).  Initials, 
abbreviating-lines,  numerals,  stops  and  the 
letter  4*  are  painted  with  bright  red.  The 
ornaments  at  the  commencements  of  the  two 
divisions  of  the  MS.  are  in  dark  red,  green 
and  yellow.  One  fol.  is  missing  after  kh,  in 
the  lower  margin  of  which  and  in  a  not 
recent  ink  are  the  words  ii'    i:'^  U^'js  ^^.

This  was  the  principal  Sa'idic  MS.  used 
by  Lagarde  for  his  Aegyptiaca  (1883).  A 
full  description  of  it  had  already  been  given 
by  Lightfoot,  The  Apostolic  Fathers  (S. 
Clement,  1877),  p.  466  ff.  {v.  also  Lagarde, 
Mittheilungen,  i.,  177  and  Stern  in  Literaturbl. 
f.  Orient.  Philol.  i.,  202).  A  comparison  of 
this  text  with  that  of  Bouriant  in  Becueil  de 
Travatix  S[c.,  v.,  vi.  shows  that  the  MS.  there 
used  was  either  a  copy  of  the  present  MS.  or 
that  both  are  copies  of  a  third.

Or.  3580B(1).— Paper;  2  fragts.  ;  com- 
plete size,  6^  X  4|  in.  The  text,  in  one  column 
of  20 — 23  lines,  is  written  in  a  small,  upright 
hand  (r/.  Ciasca,  Sacr.  Bibl.  Fragta.  i.,  tab. 
xvii.)  The  initials  are  enlarged.  The  u  has 
often  the  form  mentioned  in  no.  116  above. 
A  colon  (:)   divides  the  sentences. 

From  Abmira.  [Bddge.J 

The  Apostolical  Canons ;  nos.  kb — k^  and 
OA  (= Lagarde,  pp.  217,  1.  7  fF.  and  236, 
1.  16  ff.).  The  numbers  of  the  Canons  are 
not  given. 

The  text  is  substantially  identical  with  that 
of  Or.  1320,  though  the  language  is  very 
faulty;  the  helping-vowel  is  inaccurately 
employed  and  the  use  of  oi  and  i  is  often 
irregular. 

The  more  remarkable  divergencies  from 
the  text  of  Or.  1320  (  =  Lagarde)  are

The  titles  are  in  a  smaller,  slightly  sloping

two  solander  cases,  containing  27  foil,  and 
some  smaller  fragts.  of  papyrus.  Of  these, 
four  foil. — nos.  xx,  xxv,  xxvi,  xxvii — do  not 
belong  to  the  rest,  but  contain  portions  of 
the  Psalter  (v.  the  Additions  and  Corrections, 
at  the  end  of  this  Catalogue).  The  original 
size  of  a  fol.  was  about  12x8  in.  The  paging 
of  fol.  xxiii  only,  qi^,  qn,  is  preserved.  The 
text,  in  one  column  of  23  (or  more)  lines,  is 
written  in  a  large,  somewhat  irregular  hand 
{cf.  von  Lemm  in  Bull,  de  VAc.  imp.,  N.S.  III.

there  the  character  is  somewhat  more 
regular  than  in  our  papyrus).  Both  angular

The  sequence  of  the  last  4  fragts.  is  un- 
certain, as  I  have  not  been  able  to  identify 
their  contents.  No.  xv  B  might  be  from 
Can.  78,  though  the  text  differs  entirely  from 
that  of  the  Arabic  version,  while  xv  A 
appears  to  refer  to  adultery  or  some  similar 
crime.  No.  xxi  A  forbids  the  faithful  to 
frequent  shops,  uaiikaiiii.\[u(:]  and  contains 
regulations  as  to  marriage  ;  while  xxi  B  deals 
with  the  proper  conduct  of  Church  Service. 
No.  xxii  A  aud  B  refer  apparently  to  the 
punishment  of  theft  of  Church  property. 
No.  xxiii  A  and  B  treat  of  the  observance  of 
"  the  two  fasts."  There  are  also  fragts.  in

identical  with  Mingarelli,  Ae(j.  codd.  reliq  ,

in  the  latter  MS.,  indicates  either  Shenouto

probably  than  a  member  of  the  Pacho-

171. 

Or.  5001.— Papyrus.     A  complete  volume 
of  174  foil. ;    12f  X  9  in. ;  now  separated  and 
under  glass,  but  originally  in  a  heavy  binding 
(i  in.  thick)  composed  of  layers  of  papyrus 
covered  with  leather  and  now  kept  separately. 
This   leather,  once  red,  is  stamped  in  the 
middle  with  linear  patterns  interspersed  with 
a  repetition  of  two  small  figures, — an  antelope 
and   a  bird, — while    the   upper   and    lower 
margins   bear  alternately   the   figures   of  a 
dog  (?)  and  a  bunch  of  grapes.     In  the  centre 
of  the  whole  is  a  dove.     To  the  upper  right- 
hand  corner  of  the  binding  a  plated  leathern 
throng  was  fixed.      The  papyrus  varies  in 
quality  ;  some  of  it  is  coarse,  some  very  fine 
and   brittle.      Its  colour  is  generally  light 
brown-yellow.     Each  fol.  consists  of  but  a 
single  o-eXt's.     The  preparation  of  the  surfaces 
does  not  appear  to  be  superior  on  the  rectos 
to  that  on  the  versos.     Each  fol.  is  pricked 
with  holes — presumably  to  guide  the  scribe ; 
4  in  the  top,  4  in  the  bottom  and  2  in  the 
outer  margin.      But  the  holes  are  not  uni- 
formly at  the   same   distances  apart.     The 
system  of  pagination  is  peculiar.    The  volume 
begins  with  priA ;  but  pno  is  followed  by  ci.' 
Thence    they    run    consecutively  to   cpuH. 
After  this  a  new  sequence  commences  run- 
ning from  A  to  MM,  when  a  third  commence- 
ment is  made  with   a.     This   series   closes 


the  volume  with  pu.     The  numeration  of  the 
pages  is  very  often  faulty.     There  are  22 
quires,  Ta  to  ab,  20  of  which  are  of  8,  2  of  7 
foil.    In  two  or  three  places  small  strips  cut 
from  a  parchment  MS.  (c/.  Hyvernat,  Album, 
pi. ii. 3), were  sewn  in  with  the  stitching  of  the 
quires.     They  are  now  preserved  separately. 
At  pit;  (2nd  series)  a  leather  tab  is  attached 
to  the  outer  margin,  marking  a  division  in 
the   text,  the   other  divisions   having  been 
probably  indicated  in  the  same  way."     The 
text  has  in  various  places  been  retouched  or 
corrected  by  later  hands  {e.g.  cpr,  cpt.,  r«r 
2nd  ser.,  k^  do.),  while  alterations  by  the 
original  scribe  are  frequent  {e.g.  cp.vf.,  ka  2nd 
ser.,  AA  3rd  ser.).     The  text,  in  two  columns 
of  22 — 26  lines  each,  is  written  by  the  same 

scribe  throughout,    {v.  the  Facsimile.)     The 

first  and  final  pages  of  the  quires  are  without 

monograms.     Initials  are  not  enlarged  and 

the  paragraph-marks  are  simple.

Begins,  "The  prophet  saith,  My  tears 
have  been  my  meat  day  and  night."    Let 
us  subject  our  souls  by  fasts  and  our 
bodies  by  labours  till  we  become  fellows 
of  the  angel  of  repentance  who  will  then 
come,    separate    the   chaff    and    plant 
spiritual  fruit.     Great  are  thy  consola- 
tions, 0   Repentance !    Gladness  is   in 
thy  grief,  joy  in  thy  tears.      Adorn  hnr 
with  prayers,  crown  her  with  humility 
of  tears,  that  the  other  virtues  too  may 
see  and  crowd  to  dwell  in  you.     Repen- 
tance led  the  saints  to  their  trials  ;   was 
food  to  hungry,  drink  to  thirsty.     When 
Nineveh  repented,  beasts  as  well  as  men 
put  on  sackcloth.     Let  us  not  afterwards 
return  again  to  sin  nor  be  too  late  in 
repenting,  lest  then  the  angels  of  wrath 
bind  the  sinful  souls  and  cast  them  into 
Tartarus,  where  is  no  intercession  nor 
friend.     Let  repentance  deliver  us  in  the 
day  of  death.     Oh,  the  misery  then  of

said  in  The  Gospel  of  Matthew,  The 
Kingdom  of  heaven  is  like  &c."  God  is 
the  lord  of  the  vineyard  which  is  the 
house  of  Israel.  The  first  labourers, 
Moses,  Aaron,  Joshua  ;  those  of  the  3rd 
hour,  the  Judges ;  those  of  the  6th  and 
9th,  Samuel,  David  and  the  Prophets ; 
those  of  the  11th,  the  Apostles,  who 
stood  idle  from  evil-doing.  For  the  devil 
liad  failed  to  hire  the  Baptist  for  an 
eating-house,  Peter  for  faithlessness  or 
Andrew  for  a  defiling  marriage.  The 
Lord  said  (fol.  e)  "  Father,  the  men  that 
thou  gavest  me  out  of  the  world,  I  have 
found  them  chosen  vessels."  Christ  is 
the  eTTiVpoTTos.  The  payment  given  is 
the  Apostleship  and  the  Sacraments 
{irpocr^opa).  The  murmurers  are  the 
Scribes  and  Pharisees ;  he  whom  Christ 
rebukes,  Judas.  What,  0  Judas,  thy 
gain  in  betraying  the  Lord  ?  Better 
Cain  that  slew  man  than  Judas  that  slew 
God.  Matthaias  took  his  place,  while  he 
went  down  to  hell.     Come  up  on  .to  the 


ship  of  salvation,  i.e.  the  Church's  faith. 
Its  oars  are  the  two  Testaments ;  mast 
and  helm,  the  Cross  and  the  arms  of  him

Begins, "  Let  us  now  realise,  O  brethren, 
how  that,  in  the  hour  when  God  formed 
all  creation  (Krio-ts),  there  was  none  that 
knew  nor  was  there  any  voice."  At  the 
creation  none  knew  but  the  Father  and 
the  Son  ;  at  the  end  of  the  world,  the 
whole  of  Creation  shall  be  disturbed.  At 
the  building  of  Solomon's  temple  there 
was  no  sound  heard;  for  it,  like  the 
world's  creation,  was  the  work  of  God's 
inspiration.  If  all  was  God's  creation, 
why  ehould  it  perish  ?  Created  in  six 
days,  ruled  by  Him  for  6000  years,  it 
is  to  be  overthrown  in  a  single  hour. 
Of  this  man's  sin  is  the  cause,  just  as  it 
brought  the  flood  and  other  punishments 
in  former  ages.  Solomon's  temple  was 
built  in  silence,  so  that  he  might  not  be 
disturbed  while  sitting  in  judgment. 
But  after  the  people's  sins, the Chaldaeans 
came  and  in  a  year  destroyed  his  work.

Yesterday  Paul  prepared  his  table  for 
us,  to-day  Matthew  ;  then  a  blasphemer, 
now  a  publican  whom  the  Lord  con- 
verted 1  Despair  not !  all  can  be  thus 
converted.  If  thou  hast  sinned,  repent 
like  the  Canaanitish  woman.  A  woman, 
the  devil's  chief  weapon,  comes  to  Christ 
and  begs  for  mercy, — not  for  her 
daughter  who  was  unconscious  through

Cilicia,   Cappadocia,   Syria,    Phoenicia? 

The  power  of  prayer.     God  will  not  have 

innumerable  o-tixoi  of  words,  but  only 

thy  prayers.     Pray  in  the  street  or  in 

the  baths  oiooriie.     If  thou  enter  the 

churches   of  Persians,    Goths    kotboc, 

Hindoos  eiiTov,  Moors,  thou  shalt  hear 

Christ's  voice.      If  thou  appeal  to  the 

apxf»v,  they   may    tell    thee   he    sleeps 

and  cannot  see  thee.     God  will  always 

hear.   As  the  Father  by  His  word  created 

the    world,   so    the    Son    healed    this

The  peculiarities  of  orthography  which  are 

found   throughout   the  whole  MS.    may  be 

taken   merely  as   an  indication  of  a  single 

scribe,  writing  probably  from  dictation.  They 

are ;    (1)  a  constant  interchange  of  k  and  tr, 

R  and  (| ;     (2)  the  use  of  a  for  e,  Aptorii, 

iKvpe- ;    (3)  the   doubling   of  vowels,  ^aa-,

P.  CKA  is  the  first  of  quire  T^  ;  14f  X  11^  in. 
The  text,  in  two  columns  of  32  lines  each,  is 
written  in  regular  characters  (c/.Zoega,cl.  iv, 
no.  xvi.  The  resemblance  is  so  close  that 
both  were  probably  the  work  of  one  scribe). 
Initials  are  slightly  enlarged,  and  have  coarse 
ornaments  of  green  and  red  (or  brown)  upon 
finer  scrolls  in  ink.  In  the  Paris  collection.

Or.  3581  A(5). — Parchment;  part  of  a 
leaf ;  ruled  ;  8^  X  8^  in.  The  text,  in  two 
columns,  is  written  in  a  somewhat  irregular 
hand  (c/.  Ciasca,  ii.,  tab.  xxv.).  Initials, 
slightly  enlarged,  are  ornamented  with  floral 
scrolls  in  ink. 

From  Ahmim.  [Bddoe.] 

From  an  epistle  to  a  monastic  congrega- 
tion. The  text  is  the  same  as  that  on 
pp,  cKii,  cKo  of  the  preceding  number.  The 
type  of  script  of  Zoega,  no.  ccxxxvi.  forbids 
U8  to  see  m  this  fragt.  a  part  of  that  MS. 

177. 

Or.  3581  A(6). — Parchment;  a  fragment 
(from  the  Ist  fol.  of  quire  i),  paged  it^,  m ; 
9  X  9  in.  The  text,  in  two  columns,  is  written 
in  an  upright  hand  (p.  Georgi,  Frag.  Ev.  S. 
Jok.,  tab.  iii.,  ult.).  Initials,  the  letter  4>  &c. 
are  in  red ;  the  quire-ornament  in  red,  green 
and  yellow.  To  the  same  MS.  belonged  the 
fragments  published  Georgi,  l.L,  425  ff., 
Mingarelli,  Aeg.  eodd.  rel.,  282  fF.,  the  former 
of  which  shows  the  same  text  as  Zoega, 
no.  cccxi. ;  also  in  the  Paris  collection,  Vol. 
131»,  foil.  147—160  and  the  Clarend.  Press 
fragt.  45. 

From  Ahmim.  [GRiprrre.] 

John  Chrysostom ;  from  Homily  xxv  on 
the  Epistle  to  the  Hebrews.  The  version  is, 
as  Georgi  has  remarked,con8iderably  different 
from  the  known  Greek  text  (r.  Migne,  Patr. 
Gr.,  63,  175).

Or.  3581  A(7). — Parchment ;  a  single  leaf, 
paged  iiii,  n[M]  (or  tt],  th);  14x11  in.  The 
text,   in   two   columns   of   about   30   lines 


each,  is  written  in  a  bold,  somewhat  florid 
hand  (c/.  Ciasca,  i.,  tab.  iii.).  Initials  are 
slightly  enlarged.  From  the  same  MS.  as 
two  other  fragts.  in  the  collection  (v.  the 
Index,  under  Joore  and  Elias  of  Psoi,)  and 
several  in  Paris. 

From  Ahmim.  [Btoge.] 

Cyril ;  (a)  the  latter  part  of  a  Eulogy  on 
the  Virgin ;  (fi)  the  beginning  of  a  Homily 
spoken  on  the  festival  of  the  Virgin,  and 
relating  to  Anna  and  the  seven  Marys  {v. 
Forbes  Robinson,  in  Cambridge  Texts  and 
Studies,  iv  2,  p.  222).^  At  the  end  of  (a)  is 
A  AHA  KTpi.vAoc  OA^/nicKo  and  as  the  heading 

to   (;8),   B  OUAIOC  TOT  ATPOT. 

The  eulogy  is  composed  of  short  strophes 
in  each  of  which  a  different  part  or  aspect  of 
the  Virgin's  body  is  likened  to  some  spiritual 
object  or  quality,  e.g. ;  to-imciobo  uliapiafk;

Papyrus  VI.,  sheets  2,  3  (vi),  8  (ixii).— Three 
fragments ;  the  largest  51 X  4^  in.  The  text, 
in  one  column,  is  written  in  a  hand  recalling 
both  the  1st  and  4th  of  Zoega's  classes.  A 
short  stroke  in  the  margin  indicates  the 
paragraphs.  Many  letters  are  illegible  or 
uncertain.

text  is  not  that  of  the  Greek  or  Latin 
published  versions,  being  increased  by  long 
additions  and  developments  of  a  homiletic 
nature.  Zoega's  text  appears  here  and  there 
to  have  a  closer  resemblance  to  the  Latin

Mention  is  then  made  of  the  Archbishop  of 
Alexandria  pakotg,  who  had  "  spoken  boldly 
(TrappTjo-idCoiJLai,)  concerning  the  right  faith 
(tti'o-tis)."  Greetings  are  sent  to  the  brethren, 
riKTpic  (/fuptos)  Aii|  and  nKrpic  BiKTcup.

II.  An  Epistle  (eVto-ToXij)  from  the  Patri- 
arch and  Archbishop  .  .  .  .  ?  to  Probus  the 
General  (crTpaTrjXdTTjs:).  Begins,  "  I  know 
your  power  (efoucria),  and  that  ye  strive 
after  {itiiOviiuv)  good."  The  writer  uses  the 
2nd  pers.  pi.  throughout,  and  adopts  a  humble 
tone  (TAUiiTeAAXicToc).  The  position  of  this 
epistle  upon  the  page  and  the  length  of  the 
pages  of  the  Crawford  MS.  show  that  the 
text  must  have  been  quite  short.

From  Ahmim.  [BucaE.] 

Peter  of  Alexandria;  from  an  Epistle, 
probably  that  to  Meletius  of  Siut.^  After 
exhortations  not  to  resist  persecution,  and 
not  to  consort  with  heretics  {Quotations; 
Mat.  xxvi.  41,  Lu.  xiii.  85),  he  relates  the  fol- 
lowing anecdote  of  his  predecessor,  Theonas, 
and  the  care  with  which  he  avoided  all 
polluting  contact  with  heretics.

the  ancient  stories  (io-rd/oia)  are  no  longer  a

is  no  longer  of  camel's  (hair),  but  of  sheep's 
(wool).  John's  leathern  girdle  is  the  con- 
tinence (eyKpareia)  which  girds  them  that

(/icXos)  are  not  yet  subject  to  them.  Let 
John's  food  be  locusts  and  wild  honey ;  my 
Saviour  eats  the  bread  of  life.  Let  the 
prophetic  word  alight  from  heaven,  and  not 
fly  up  like  the  locust ;  but  let  knowledge  of 
grace  fly  up  and  become  a  fellow-nursling

The  end  of  one  Homily  and  the  commence- 
ment of  another,  presumably  by  Rufus  of 
Shotep,  since  the  Paris  fragt.  is  his.  Possi- 
bly our  leaf  belongs  to  Zoega  no.  ccxlii. 
The  first  text  speaks  oE  Christ  as  the  pledge 
and  beginning  (ap-^TJ)  of  the  Resurrection; 
the  second,  with  the  heading  gabbaaikh  {aafi- 
fiaTLKrj),  treats  of  the  praises  of  God  sung  by 
Miriam  (uApieAu),  the  Virgin,  Moses,  David, 
Solomon  (Tra/aoi/xtao-TTj?),  .Jeremiah,  who  also 
counselled  men  to  seek  knowledge  and  salva-

Presumably  from  a  Homily  or  Epistle  of 
Severus  of  Antioch,  since  all  but  one  (129", 
f.  91,)  of  the  Paris  and  most  of  the  Borgian 
fragments  are  from  those  works.  The  other 
works  preserved  in  the  MS.  were  the  Ignatian 
Epistles,  in  which  the  texts  of  our  fragt.  are 
not  to  be  found.  The  passages  here  pre- 
served are  addressed  partly  in  the  2nd  sing.

deal  with  the  benefits  of  obedience  to  God

Or.  3581  A(21). — Parchment;  11  complete 
leaves  ;  ruled  but  not  paged,  though  one  (now 
fol.  8,)  was  the  first  of  quire  k^;  14^  X 11^ 
in.  The  text,  in  two  columns  of  32  lines 
each,  is  written  in  a  regular  hand  (c/.  Hy  ver- 
nat,  Album,  pU.  vii.  2,  viii.  4  or  Zoega,  cl.  iv, 
no.  xvi.).  To  the  outer  edge  of  fol.  2,  a 
leather  tab  was  formerly  attached.  Four  other 
leaves  from  the  same  book,  one  bearing  the 
quire-mark  ka,  are  catalogued  under  the  next 
number.  In  the  Paris  collection,  Vol.  130^, 
fol.  92  seems  to  be  from  the  same  MS.

Or.  3581A(22).— Parchment ;  four  com- 
plete  leaves  from  the  same  MS.  as  the  pre- 
ceding number  (v.  the  description).  Fol.  1 
is  toe  first  of  quire  ka.  None  of  the  leaves 
are  consecutive. 

From  one  or  more  Homilies.  The  style 
is  clearer  and  Greek  words  are  more  plentiful 
than  is  usual  with  Shenoute.     The  heresy  of 


1  Six  foil,  immediately  following  the  Curzon  fragt. 
(text  =  Zoega  ccx*,)  are  bound  with  MS.  24  of  Lord 
Crawford's  collection. 


Manes  (c/.  fol.  4)  is  attacked  in  two  of  his 
known  writings  {v.  Zoega,  pp.  420,  450). 

Fol.  1.  May  (xod  forgive  His  people.  "We 
repent  and  grieve  yet  do  not  forsake  sin.  If 
God  slew  half  the  world,  we  should  still  sin. 
How  shall  we  escape  when  that  "great 
barbarian  "  comes  upon  us  from  whom  none  , 
is  safe. . . . 

Fol.  2.  Where  will  be  our  boldness  in 
presence  of  the  judge?  None  can  escape 
death  by  vows  of  gifts  or  the  like.  MaXaKoi 
and  sodomites  shall  be  especially  punished. 
Woe  to  them  that  kill  themselves  and  others 
too  and  that  strive  and  fight  together  ;  for 
thus  Satan  rages  within  us.  Call  not  such 
brothers  but  devils.  .  . . 

Fol.  3.  Our  troubles  are  less  than  our  sins 
merit.  Blessed  art  Thou  that  bearest  our 
sins  and  troubles  !  Thou  art  God,  we  are  but 
earth  and  wither  as  grass.  Blessed  those 
whom  Thou  bringest  under  the  power  of  the 
Holy  Spirit,  for  they  subdue  the  body  beneath 
Thy  yoke.  The  Lord  is  x/3>?cr7ds,  and  teaches 
His  laws  to  His  people.  What  is  sweeter 
than  Thy  yoke  or  lighter  than  Thy  burden  ? 
All  is  sweet  that  Thou  hast  created.  Thence 
we  see  that  Thou  alone  art  God ;  we  may 
not  be  idolaters.  Marriage  is  sweet  to  us 
because  of  the  begetting  of  children  without 
TTopvua,  .  .  . 

Fol.  4.  How  shall  they  hide  from  Him, 
the  Father  that  made  them  ?  He,  the  word 
made  flesh,  the  true  man,  yet  maintained  His 
divinity.  The  wickedness  of  Manes'  heresy. 
How  should  the  builder  despise  his  work  ? 
How  is  God  changed  by  coming  forth  from 
her  He  had  created  ?  Contrast  of  Christ's 
heavenly  glory  and  earthly  humility  and  of 
the  simple  shepherds'  faith  with  the  rulers' 
unbelief.  ...

p.  pur.  On  unbehef  and  heresy,  vigilance 
{v7](f)ei.v)  and  mutual  help,  this  being  no  time 
for  countenancing  error  (ciopu).  The  writer 
also  condemns  another  result  of  "  this  empty 
hope  (eXTTts),"  namely,  the  casting  lots  as  to 
who  shall  go  to  (other)  districts  and  the 
like,  or  when  they  seek  to  marry  their 
children  (to  see  if)  they  shall  be   successful.

complete  leaves,  ruled  and  paged  [ie],  k  and 
Ko,  a;  12^ X  10  in.  P.  k  is  the  last  of  quire 
B.  The  text,  in  two  columns  of  30  lines 
each,  is  written  in  a  regular  character  (v. 
Hyveruat,  Album,  pi.  viii.  4).  Initials  are 
somewhat  enlarged  and  ornamented  with 
small  and  neat  scrolls  partly  in  red.

consecutively,  toh  —  fqr  and  Ttje  —  vq-.

In  the  Paris  collection.  Vol.  130',  fol.  120,  is 
also  from  the  same  MS. 

From  Ahmim,  [Griffith,  Budge.] 

From  a  Homily  (1)  admonishing  and  re- 
proaching monks  for  unchastity,  (2)  on  the 
true  love  of  Christ,  quoting  Joh.  xxi.  16, 
Heb.  xi.  13.  Possibly  the  two  leaves  are 
not  from  the  same  homily.  The  style  is  not 
that  usual  with  Shenoute,  being  clear  and 
simple  and  containing  a  large  proportion  of 
Greek  words.

From  Ahmim.      [Mykrs,  Budge.  Horner.] 

From  a  Homily  or  Instructions  to  monks, 
by  Shenoute  {v.  the  Oxford  and  Cairo  f  ragts.). 
It  gives  rules  for  the  distribution  of  food- 
allowances,  for  washing,  for  the  gathering  of 
fruit,  which  is  not  to  be  committed  to  children, 
for  the  conduct  and  duties  of  the  puiiHi, 
directs  the  punishment  and  expulsion  of 
brawlers  and  reproves  the  neglect  of  the 
sick.'  The  following  are  specimens  of  the 
text;

From  one  or  two  Homilies  or  Epistles, 
presumably  of  Shenoute,  on  God's  mercy,  on 
sorrow  at  the  sins  of  others,  on  the  refiner's 
fire  and  the  need  of  working  at  the  improve- 
ment of  our  characters  and  on  unprofitable 
varieties  of  trees  as  types  of  sin.  The  fol- 
lowing are  specimens  of  the  texts  ;

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

From  one  or  more  HomiHes.  If  the  first  two 
of  the  Paris  fragments  belonged  to  the  same 
MS.  as  these,  then  the  latter  are  doubtless 
from  the  works  of  Shenoute,  since  the  Paris 
leaves  both  bear  his  name.'  Our  texts  deal 
first  (pp.  OG,  w-,)  with  the  sacrament  of  com- 
munion, typified  formerly  by  a  lamb  sacrificed, 
and  with  the  proper  mode  of  partaking 
thereof.     How  great  is  the  peril  for  those

that  reserve  a  part  of  the  elements  till  the 
morrow  or  indeed  longer  and  carry  it  through 
the  streets  and  into  the  houses  of  the  rich, 
to  sell  {or  give)  of  it !  Such  do  not  truly  com- 
municate, for  they  partake  in  company  with 
no  one,  and  they  hear  before  neither  psalms 
nor  lessons.  Even  the  sick  should  be  brought 
occasionally  to  Church.  The  other  fragt. 
(pp.  nr; — q,)  relates  Christ's  Passion,  and 
adduces  many  testimonies  to  His  glory  and 
power.  The  following  are  specimens  of  the 
texts ;

The  text,  in  two  columns  of  about  32  lines

Vol.  131*,  fol.  71  and  perhaps  other  frag- 
ments are  from  the  same  MS. 

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

From  one  or  two  Homilies.  The  first  leaf 
treats  of  the  Nestorian  heresy ;  the  second  of 
an  unorthodox  form  of  divine  service.'  The 
language  and  obscure  style  of  the  Crawford 
fragt.  point  to  Shenoute  as  the  author. 

p.  jr.  (Christ)  suffered  privation,  and  at 
last  death  for  us.  He  preserved  the  Three 
Children,  but  gave  Himself  to  those  that  cru- 
cified Him  and  while  the  soul  of  man  goes 
at  death  to  God,  His  soul  went  to  Hell. 
Thence  He  returned  and  took  His  body  to 
Heaven  and  in  it  He  shall  come  again. 
"  Wherefore,"  said  he  further, "  it  is  not  meet 
to  say  the  Virgin  bare  a  god.  And  I  will 
not  call  him  a  god  that  was  three  months  in 
the  womb  and  took  suck  and  grew  {irpoKov- 
Teu»)  gradually.     And  it  is  written,"  said  he, 


>  Pui»  78,  •41  (pp.  p<|A,  p<|B,)  treaU  of  the  need  of 
eoaunanicatiQg  williin  the  cHurch,  not  e.g.  in  the 
bsptutery. 


"  Take  the  child  to  Egypt,  not  Take  the  god."» 
But  when  was  God  revealed  to  man,  as  is 
written,  except  when  born  of  the  Virgin  ? 
He,  therefore,  whom  she  bore  was  a  god. 
So  it  is  needful  (apayKalov)  to  confess  {ofio- 
Xoyeij/)  that  Mary  bore  God,  as  our  fathers 
said.  Many  are  the  blasphemies  of  that 
unclean  one  (d/ca^apros),  so  that  I  hesitate 
and  hate  to  repeat  them. 

p.  m,.  Such  is  the  service  (or  worship)  of 
them  that  do  this  and  know  not  that  it  is 
Satan  working  (cvc/yycii')  in  them  and  no  truth 
of*  God.  The  hunter  often  surrounds  his 
prey  or  uses  bait.  So  does  Satan  tyrannize 
over  the  wicked,  entrapping  some  through 
false  wisdom,  and  easily  makes  them  heretics, 
antichristians  &c.,  till  they  become  servants 
(vmjpeTTjq)  of  the  mystery  of  iniquity  (v. 
2  Thess.  ii.  7),  their  impiety  being  concealed 
in  this  service  like  a  sword,  to  destroy  them 
that  it  catches  ;  for  it  is  not  of  God  but  of 
him  that  deceives  [nXcufav)  them.  Quotations  ; 
Mt.  XXV.  31,  ib.  ii.  13,  "  God  the  Lord  hath 
appeared  to  us,"  Mt.  i.  23,  Prov.  xv.  8.

27  lines  each,  is  written  in  a  rather  large 
hand  (c/.  Hyvernat,  ^Z6wto,  pi.  viii.  2).  One

From  Ahmim.  [Bddge.]

Or.  3581  A(36). — Parchment;  four  com- 
plete leaves,  paged  ptjF. — ga  ;  12x9|^  in. 
The  text,  in  two  columns  of  24  or  25  lines 
each,  is  written  in  a  regular  hand  (c/.  Ciasca, 
ii,  tab.  xxvi.).  Initials  are  slightly  enlarged. 
From  Ahmim.  [Bqdge.] 

From  an  Epistle  (?)  recounting  an  inter- 
view between  the  writer  and  a  high  oflBcial 


{■fjyeixcav).  The  style  and  matter  recall  Zoega 
no.  cxciv  (Shenoute),  to  which  fragments 
indeed  these  bear  great  resemblance,  though 
hardly  enough  to  admit  of  their  being 
regarded  as  from  the  same  book. 

The  just  judge  shall  shame  respecters  of 
persons  and  his  successors  shall  confirm  his 
laws.  For  he  checks  (avaTpiireiv)  error (nXdvr)) 
instead  of  trampling  on  (KaTanaTeiv)  justice. 
I  said  too  that  we  all  do  feverishly  run  after 
greatness  or  high  titles  (pah'),  even  after 
those  of  bishop  and  priest,  heeding  not 
{afieXelu)  good  works  without  which  faith 
and  still  more  titles  are  vain.  I  must  then 
against  my  will  for  the  sake  of  my  hearers, 
blaming  and  shaming  the  enemy  again  as  ye 
are  all  aware,  tell  also  of  the  many  bishops, 
clergy,  magistrates  (dp-^o)p),  soldiers  and 
people  who  waited  days  and  nights  at  the 
Archbishop's  command  and  (because  of)  his 
letter  that  I  should  come  and  be  made  bishop 
and  yet  I  came  not,  desiring  that  God's 
name  might  thereby  be  glorified  since  I  saw 
how  many  lusted  with  bribes  (xpyjfia.)  after 
titles,  preferring  barren  honour  to  the  great- 
ness of  Christ.  Indeed  truly  I  wonder  not 
that  the  ill  fame  of  those  monasteries  (tottos) 
which  vie  one  with  another  in  buying  titles, 
has  reached  thither.  But  the  good  fame  of 
him  that  suppresses  the  power-lovers  has 
speedily  changed  them  (ovotbot  gboa),  not 
only  Alexandria  or  Ephesus,  but  the  very 
court  (koimitSltov)  and  royal  palace  {avXrj),  as 
light  removes  darkness.  It  was  common 
knowledge  when  we  were  absent  (d-rroSrjfjielv^) 
at  the  session  (crvvSpiov)  of  the  holy, 
oecumenical  synod,  the  Archbishop  testifying 
to  the  other  archbishops  and  bishops,  in 
praise  (eVaimc)  instead  of  blame,  how  when

sent  for  to  this  end  I  had  not  come,  yet 
when  bidden  to  the  synod,  I  had  followed 
(ta?o)  forthwith,  outstripping  the  bishops  too 
and  arriving  ere  any  had  been  judged  {KpC- 
P€w).  This  I  relate  that  we  may  despise  the 
glory  got  of  men.  . . .  And  I  continued, 
Instead  of  despising  servants  we  should 
recollect  Christ's  love  who  sat  with  sinners 
and  promised  them  heaven's  table.  We  our- 
selves ought  to  be  ashamed  before  Him. 
Why  do  we  not  ask  to  be  clean  of  Him  who 
would  readily  cleanse  us  ?  This  I  had  said 
to  him,  praising  (eVau'crf)  him  while  he  stood 
in  the  church  (waiting)  till  the  multitude 
had  partaken  of  the  sacrament  (irpoa-^pa). 
(Then)  I  said.  Is  it  the  same,  a  governor 
standing  and  worshipping  Christ  and  one 
sitting  and  judging  Christ?  (xnrco  crrco'

reconciled  the  whole  church  to  His  Father

columns  of  32  lines  each,  is  written  in  a 
square  and  regular  hand  (c/.Hyvernat,  J/iitm, 
pi.  viii.  3 ;  but  our  MS.  shows  usually  the 
later  form  of  r  in  one  stroke).  The  initials 
are  slightly  enlarged.  Although  the  unpaged 
fragt.  has  a  preponderance  of  tlie  later  forms 
of  A,  u,  there  is  little  doubt  of  its  relation  to 
the  other  leaves. 

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

From  a  Homily  or  Epistle,  addressed  to  a 
monastic  congregation.  It  refers  to  "those 
that  are  truly  ill,"  warns  against  neglect  of 
the  sick,  condemns  those  who  for  their 
bellies'  lusts  forsake  the  congregation  and  so 
cause  schisms.  Force  had  not  been  used  to 
these,  but  rather  the  truest  love,  in  the  wish 
to  save  them.  The  poor  and  aged  of  the 
congregation  must  not  be  forgotten  and  the 
word  must  be  preached  to  them.  Quotations ; 
Job  vii.  5,  Is.  xxxviii,  13,  Mat.  xxv.  45,  Is. 
xlviii.  18,  Gal.  vi.  16. 

Certain  phrases  recall  the  Cod.  Borg.  ccxxxii. 

which  Zoega  is  inclined  to  attribute  to  Besa ; 

but  the  words  quoted  beloio  from  the  Fragt. 

!  are   identical   with   Zoega,   p.  384,  n.  10,  a 

MS.  containing  an  epistle  of  Shenoute.

fear  of  divine  wrath  and  punishment.  Pre-

14  X  7  in.  The  text,  in  two  columns  of 
30 — 32  lines  each,  is  in  a  very  similar  hand

differences  which  forbid  their  being  placed

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

Presumably  from  a  Homily  or  Epistle 
which  here  describes  the  Last  Judgment.  It 
is  remarkable  that  this  fragt.  and  Lord 
Crawford's  no.  30  {v.  the  preceding  no.,) 
should  contain,  in  differing  contexts,  an 
identical  quotation  from  the  writings  of  "  our

Miitkeilungen  ii.  72  appear  also  to  belong  to

in  Mingarelli,  Aeg.  codd.  rel.,  p.  337,  which 
follows  ours  at  some  distance  (ef.  Migne,

*  Theae  Paris  leaves  contain  part  of  a  Ka&rpfrfaii  by  —  t 
of  Neapolis,  on  Is.  v.  18;  a  fragment  of  the  stor)'  of 
a  philosopher,  a  shepherd  and  a  lion,  with  reflections  on 
those  that  permit  (<nry;(<i(p«Ii')  evil-doing;  fragments  of 
other  stories  in  which  philosophers  play  a  part,  notably 
one  in  which  a  heathen  sets  an  example  to  Christians  of 
sobriety  of  living  (quoting  Eccli.  xviii.  31,  Mat.  vi.  31 — ii 
&c.),  another  in  which  a  philosopher  by  a  change  of  dress 
convicts  the  bystanders  of  paying  rcgurd  only  to  outward 
appearances ;  part  of  a  story  of  a  king  and  his  courtiers,  a 
potter  and  a  personage  called  "  he  of  the  KaKoirpoaCpean  "  ; 
part  of  a  conversation  between  S.  Anthony  and  certain 
philosophers ;  also  small  parts  of  other  stories  and  of  a 
homily  (T)  u|>on  the  creation.  One  of  the  stories  is 
numbered  e.  Other  numbers  may,  both  in  the  Pari.'i 
fragments  and  in  ours,  have  been  lost.  The  Cairo  and 
Leyden  fragta.  are  from  homilies.  In  1897-98  another 
fragt.  was  for  sale  in  Cairo  containing  part  of  a  work 
of  Basil.  This  collection  has  certain  resemblances  to  the 
Ethiopic  Book  of  the  Wise  P/iilosopJiers,  especially  to  the 
Paris  MS.  no.  159. 

*  'Eptiriv€ia  designates  likewise  the  theological  or  ethical 
comments  appended  to  some  of  the  proverbs  in  Kruni- 
bacher's  Mittelgrieeh.Spriehw.  {Sitzb.  k.  hayr.  Akad.  1893).

Album,  pi.  xii.  4,  though  the  script  of  our 

fragt.  is  still  coarser).     It  has  much  likeness 

to  that  of  a  fragt.  on  Paul,  Barnabas  and 

Mark  beloiv.     Initials  are  slightly  enlarged. 

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

From  a  Homily.     The  text  treats  of  the 

value   of   the    Scriptures   and   the   need   of 

honouring    them,    of    the    inability   of    the 

wicked  (?)  to  divide  the  Old  from  the  New 

Testament  &c.     Quotation;  Lu.  xxii.  38. 

219. 

Or.  3581  A(47).— Parchment;  a  fragment; 
10x8^  in.  The  text,  in  two  columns,  is 
written  in  an  upright,  somewhat  crowded 
hand  (c/.  Ciasca,  ii,  tab.  xxvi,  but  the  resem- 
blance is  not  great).  Initials  are  enlarged 
and  they  alone  are  coloured  red.  In  the 
Paris  collection  Vol.  13P  fol.  88  is  probably 
from  the  same  MS.,  while  Vol.  78  fol.  48  and 
Vol.  129'*  fol.  42  are  by  the  same  scribe. 

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

From  a  Homily. 

The  Jews  crucified  Him  under  Pilate.  On 
the  cross  He  was  God,  there  being  in  Him 
no  difference  between  Godhead  and  manhood. 
He  was  God  both  in  the  tomb  and  when  He 
rose.  The  corpse  He  made  man,  the  man 
God.  After  He  had  risen.  He  ascended  to 
heaven.  He  is  God  and  the  flesh  He  had 
from  the  Virgin  that  He  took  to  heaven. 
There  He  sits  and  shall  judge  quick  and 
dead.  The  five  letters  ii+or  hc2ai  in  Maria's 
name  point  to  the  five  books  of  Moses.  The 
five  wise  virgins  are  they  that  are  worthy  to 
meet  the  bridegroom.  With  five  loaves  the 
multitude  was  fed.  The  five  letters  in  M.'s 
name  are  the  completion  of  the  dispensation 

(ol/coi'o/xia) Iota  means  Jesus,  Alpha  is 

the  last,  the  beginning  of  the  Resurrection. 


The  five  talents  that  were  made  ten  are 
the  five  ancient  commandments.  Quotation; 
Mt.  iv.  17. 

220. 

Or.  3581A(48). — Parchment;  an  almost 
complete  leaf ;  1 1  f  X  9^  in.  The  text,  in  two 
columns  of  23  or  24  lines  each,  is  written  in 
an  irregular,  very  peculiar  hand  (c/.  Ciasca,  i, 
tab.  xiv,  though  the  features  there  are  less 
exaggerated).  Initials  only  are  coloured  red 
and  some  are  accompanied  by  long  scrolls  in 
red  and  yellow.  Similar  scrolls,  birds  &c. 
ornament  the  margins.  In  the  Paris  collec- 
tion Vol.  13P,  fol.  77,  Vol.  129'',  foil.  17—19, 
Vol.  129 'S  fol.  153  are  from  the  same  MS. 

Probably  from  Ahmim.  [Griffith.] 

From  a  Homily  dealing,  as  the  Paris  fragts. 
show,  with  Christ's  birth  and  youth  and  with 
the  birth  of  John  the  Baptist.^  The  text  of 
our  leaf  (to  which  Paris  13P  fol.  77  is  re- 
lated,) appears  to  be  introductory  and  con- 
tains words  addressed  by  God  the  Father  to 
His  Son,  recommending  the  admittance  into 
Paradise  of  the  righteous  patriarchs  and 
kings  who  hitherto  had  been  in  Hades.  The 
following  are  specimens  of  the  text ;

Or.  3581  A(49). — Parchment;  a  complete 
leaf  (the  first  of  quire  i,)  ruled  and  paged 
puo,  pii ;  ISJxllJ  in.  The  text,  in  two 
columns  of  32  lines  each  (though  only  16  are 
pricked,)  is  written  in  a  fine,  upright  hand 
closely  resembling  though  smaller  than  that 
of  no.  214  cJxyve.  Initials  yary  in  enlarge-

From  Ahmim.  [Bddgk.] 

From  a  Homily,  treating  here  of  God's 
grace  to  us  Gentiles  and  His  many  benefits 
after  the  Jews  had  rejected  Him.  Among 
His  benefits  are  the  scriptures  and  the 
festivals  To-iiip:'iA  of  "  the  holy  mother,  the 
catholic  Church."  Quotations;  Ps.  \xxxv. 
1,  2,  Joh.  i.  11,  Mt.  xxi.  43.

Or.  3581A(50). — Parchment;  a  fragment;

written  in  an  upright  hand  (cf.  Ciasca,  ii, 
tab.  xxvi).  Initials  are  enlarged,  slightly 
ornamented  and,  with  the  stops,  are  coloured 
red. 

Probably  from  Ahmim.  [Gkifpith.] 

>  GeoenDy  ?Aio. 


From  a  Homily.  The  passages  here  pre- 
served treat  of  belief  in  the  miracles  of  the

S.  Michael  and  in  a  church  or  chapel  (cu/cttj-

From  a  Homily,  addressed  apparently  to 
a  monastic  congregation. 

The  danger  from  wicked  strangers  who 
would  make  you,  with  your  evil-doing,  their 
heirs,  so  that  you  shame  Christ's  and  the 
saints'  testimony.  Those  that  sin  in  secret ; 
the  gre&t  damnation  of  those  in  authority 
that  do  not  expel  nor  chastise  the  sinners 
but  conceal  them.  It  is  high  time  to  turn 
to  righteousness,  to  study  the  word  and  so 
bear  good  fruit  for  Christ  who  saved  you. 

Your  fasts  and  vigils,  done  in  His  name, 
for  your  salvation.  I  have  eaten  my  bread 
and  honey, — your  blessings  and  prayers ;  I 
have  drunk  my  wine  and  milk, — your  acts  of 
love,  peace  and  mercy,  done  tliat  Christ  may 
bless  you  and  you  partake  of  Him  in  purity 
and  virginity.  For  He  became  your  father 
and  ye  His  sons  and  daughters,  that  through 
you  others  may  be  glorified.  Ye  are  His 
heirs  like  the  fathers,  prophets  and  apostles. 

He  shall  glorify  you  like  the  prophets, 
apostles  and  saints.  For  they  blessed  Him 
in  their  suffering^,  just  as  ye  in  mind  and 
body  suffer,  contending  with  this  deadly 
ovofLia.  Yet  we  have  not  shed  our  blood  for

rather  than  the  cares  of  this  fleeting  world. 
For  Christ  came  and  died  for  the  poor  man 
and  for  him  the  sun  shines  and  the  earth

From  a  Homily,  apparently  on  obedience 
to  God. 

When  Jeroboam  had  made  the  two  golden 
calves,  did  God  blame  those  who  refused 
them  homage  as  disobedient  to  the  king? 
He  rather  justified  them  and  at  last  utterly 
destroyed  the  king  and  his  house.  Did  He 
not  also  benefit  the  midwives  that  disobeyed 
Pharaoh  and  the  three  saints  that  refused 
to  worship  Nebuchadnezzar's  image  ?  The 
Apostle  (Paul)  does  not  say.  Obey  to-day 
and  sin  to-morrow  against  God  ;  but  rather 
fear  the  powers  of  the  world  only  when  doing 
evil.  Quotations:  1  Kg.  xiv.  10,  Ex.  1.  16, 
Rom,  xiii.  3,  Prov.  xvi.  12,  ib.  xxv.  5.

divide  the  sheep  and  goats,  save  the  believing

deceive  themselves  in  relying  upon  God's

From  a  Homily. 

P.  e.  Christ  showed  forbearance  so  as  to 
encourage  those  who  are  stedfast  {virofieveiv) 
in  trouble  that  they  may  fight  till  death  for 
the  truth.  When  crucified  He  was  found  to 
have  but  one  garment.  What  pauper  but 
ha%  two?  For  us  He  gave  up  everything, 
even  His  body.  Samson  found  water  in  the 
ass's  jaw-bone  uepo-roo-e;  Christ  asked 
drink  of  a  woman  ;  David  ate  the  shew- 
bread  ;  in  vain  Christ  sought  food  of  the  fig- 
tree,  for  He  fulfilled  all  humility.  Each 
saint  attained  to  some  virtue  (d/oerTj) ;  none 
bore  them  all.  Quoiations ;  Joh.  xviii.  11 
("...  shall  I  not  drink  it  with  joy?"), 
Mt.  xxvi,  53  (". . .  angels  in  place  of  twelve 
apostles  "),  ib.  v.  48,  ib.  viii.  20,  Jud.  xv.  18, 
Ps.  Ixxxviu.  7. 

P.  T\.  He  sought  not  His  own  good  but 
that  of  many.  Paul  reminds  us  of  His 
poverty;  let  us  follow  Him  and  obtain 
eternal  life.  Isaiah  saw  His  humility  ;  yet 
men  heeded  not  His  grief  and  their  own 
salvation  and  the  chiefs  of  the  Jews  turned 
from  Him.  He  bore  our  troubles  and  is  gone 
to  heaven  whence  He  came.  What  prophet 
thus  maltreated  but  was  wroth  ?  What  rich 
man  showed  such  philosophy  {<f>iKo(To^ilv)  in 
poverty  ?  Creator  of  all.  He  went  without 
house,  clothes,  city,  occupation  (trade)  or 
money.  The  purse  of  charity  He  entrusted 
to  Judas.  During  thirty  years  in  the  world 
never  a  hard  word  (did  He  utter).  Quota-

From  a  Homily  here  treating  of  Christ's 
birth  and  the  Resurrection. 

It  deals  with  Aaron's  budding  rod,  that 
bore  fruit  as  well  as  leaves  ;  with  the  natural 
period  of  conception  contrasted  with  the 
conditions  of  the  Resurrection, — the  former 
gradual,  tjie  latter  sudden.  Let  God's 
power  persuade  (ireiOeiv)  the  faithless.  (At 
the  Resurrection  man's)  nature  ((^vcrts)  and 
being  (oucria)  are  exchanged.  This  is  no

Adam  lived  by  the  sweat  of  his  brow,  kept

heaven.  He  had  not  himself  heard  God's

From  a  Homily  upon  Easter. 

He  raised  Lazarus,  but  the  glory  of  His 
own  resurrection  is  another  over.  He 
expelled  many  devils,  yet  even  they  obtained 
salvation.  Many  wonders  He  did,  but  was 
not  that  before  His  resurrection  ?  Did  he 
not  say  to  Zacchaeus,  '  Salvation  be  to  this 
house  to-day'?  There  is  salvation  for  the 
world  to-day,  whenceforward,  after  He  has 
overcome  the  Devil,  we  have  boldness  (nappT)- 
auiieadai)  in  Christ's  name.  Our  death  is 
honourable  because  of  to-day ;  for  we  shall 
riae  again.  To-day  is  Hell  spoiled,  the  souls 
of  the  ancients  return  to  their  resting-places, 
the  air  (a^p)  nourishes  the  fruit,  the  birds 
spread  taato  and  strengthen  their  wings, 
the  beasts  look  from  their  holes  and  see  the 
world  rejoicing.  To-day  David  stepped  into

From  a  Homily. 

Mammon  (iiauujiiac)  represents  the  works 
{ipyaa-ia)  of  the  world  which  we  must 
forsake  or  we  cannot  serve  Grod.  What  is 
His  service  but  a  clearing  the  heart  of 
extraneous  things,  pleasures  {rfSomj)  &c.  at 
times  of  prayer  and  praise  ?  For  these  hinder 
the  soul  in  the  arjp  from  meeting  {drTavTaf) 
God,  forming  around  it  a  wall  of  darkness. 
Two  constituent  elements  {vkr})  possess  the 
soul ;  an  outer  or  worldly  and  an  inner  or 
passionate  (ifinaOyj';).  Until  the  soul  is  free 
of  the  former,  the  latter  cannot  be  disposed 
of.  Christ  knew  that  both  are  ruled  by  the 
will  (o7' .desire)  and  He  bade  us  expel  it.  If 
the  soul  heed  outward  things,  the  mind  (voCs) 
dies  and  the  passions  {wd9o<;)  carry  on  their 
work ;  but  if  desire  be  expelled,  the  mind 
will  arise  and  give  heed  to  the  soul  which  is 
here  like  a  young  wife,  idle  in  her  husband's 
absence  but  careful  of  her  duties  under  his 
oversight.  God,  by  becoming  man,  would 
rid  us  of  {Karapyfxv)  both  these  elements 
{v\r)).  Thou  seest,  brother,  that  He  would 
have  us  dwell  in  him  by  works  (Trpafi?),  He  in 
us  through  purity.  One  will  say,  I  am  in 
Him  through  baptism  and  cannot  do  acts. 
Baptism  is  for  destroying  sin,  for  Christ 
and  sin  cannot  dwell  together.     So  when  a 


woman's  husband  is  dead,  it  is  no  sin  that 
she  marry  another.  If  we  do  no  sin,  we  may 
know  that  God  is  in  us.  He  must  be  in  him 
that  would  do(?)  acts  (Trpafts).  When  the 
soul  is  freed,  it  traverses  the  hindrances  of 
the  dijp  and  partakes  of  God's  spirit  which 
supplies  ij^op-qytlv)  it  and  gives  it  peace  for 
ever.  We  must  become  as  children,  whose 
virtues  the  Lord  describes.  But  as  they 
grow,  evil  («a>fia)  enters  in.  We,  like 
children,  are  under  the  world's  elements 
(aTot^eioi').  But  Paul  taught  us  to  leave 
childish  desires  (eVi^u/xia).  Quotations;  Mt. 
vi.  24,  Lu.  xiv.  33  {for  vtrdp^ovTa,  oTU)i?i

The  Fragt.  Those  baptised  have  taken 
Christ  upon  them.  Is  not  He  known  by  His 
purity  and  dwells  He  not  with  the  pure? 
How  to  be  pure  ?  By  ceasing  from  evil.  As 
soon  as  man  repents  God  receives  him  like 

the  prodigal God  knows  the  time  to 

hear  our  appeal,  as  the  judge  heard  the 
widow.  But  let  us  know,  brethren,  what  we 
are  asking.   Quotations ;  Lu.  xviii.  2,  Mt.  vii.  7.

of  dust  (xo«'?)  and  both  the  earthy  {xpiKov) 
and  the  spiritual  (ilrvxiKOf)  are  called  man. 
We  understand  {yotiv)  that  the  soul  is  a 
created  thing,  like  (?)  the  body ;  but  in  what 
way  created  if  it  was  breathed  into  its  (the 
body's)  face  ?  And  do  we  not  also  say  (the 
soul)  is  a  part  (/icpof)  of  God  and  is  not 
foreign  to  the  breath?  But  how  shall  we 
understand  this  delicate  matter?  God  only 
knows.  As  for  us,  we  believe  {irKTriveiv)  in 
God  alone  without  wicked  thoughts  or  over- 
anxiety  (TupUpryos).  Quotations ;  Gen.  ii.  7,

From  one  or  two  Homilies. 

P.  pne.  Abraham  is  *  the  father  of  many 
nations,'  Sarah  '  strength  '  ;  again  Abraham 
is  'the  mind'  {vov<;),  Mamre  'the  height,' 
Sarah  '  the  soul '  (xjjvxv),  while  the  tent 
(a-KTjvrj)  to  which  the  soul  flies  is  the  pro- 
tection (lit.  shadow)  of  God.  So  long  as  it 
was  with  Sarah  after  the  manner  of  "women, 
she  could  not  conceive  Isaac.  So  long  as 
the  region  of  Sodom  is  inhabited  cropcr  and 
watered  ecTcur,  she  remains  barren ;  but 
after  that  Sodom's  cry  goes  up,  the  mind 
overcomes  pnexne  the  passions  (ttci^os)  and 
becomes  a  grain  of  mustard  &c.  After 
Sodom's  destruction  and  Lot's  rescue,  Sarah 
bore  Isaac,  'joy ; '  that  is,  the  soul  when 
purified  obeys  {viroTacra-eiv)  the  mind  and 
brings  forth  joy.  Sarah  was  now  no  more  a 
prey  to  violence,  for  she  had  received  heaven's 
pledge.  After  Pharaoh's  attempt  and  she 
being  now  old  NTepecnuie  Ae  ewMocr  w^i, 
Abimelech  coveted  her ;  but  God  proved 
(eVa^eiv^)  him.  Let  there  be  no  return  to 
old  (sins)  once  abandoned.  This  the  saints 
strove  to  reach.  There  can  be  no  love 
{dydirr])  while  we  care  for  worldly  things  ;  for 
we  cannot  drink  of  Christ's  cup  and  of  the 
devil's.  Isaiah  found  he  could  not  please 
God  while  in  the  distractions  (irapao-Tracr/xd?)

for  it  is  no  small  thing  on  earth  and  un- 
speakably honoured  in  heaven.  Virginity 
and  marriage  are  as  strength  and  weakness. 
The  Apostles  forsook  all  earthly  honours  and 
ties  ;  unlike  the  rich  young  man.  God  com- 
mends those  that  become  eunuchs  for  the 
kingdom  of  heaven's  sake.  Marriage  is 
honourable  and  the  (marriage)  bed  pure  if

upon  Joseph,  Mary  and  Christ's  birth  in  which  use  is 
made  of  the  parable  of  the  pearl  (Mt.  xiii.  45,)  in  the

respects  they  seem  to  be  identical.  For  the  former  cf.

Of  the  Paris  texts,  some  are  attributed  to  Peter  of

In  heaven  there  are  no  bolts  otab  oii 
utienu)^  OTAO  uotxaoc,  for  there  are  no 
thieves;  all  is  peace  and  agreement  {crvfi- 
^(ufia).  Peter's  keys  are  good  works.  If  he 
sees  a  sinner  in  despair,  he  opens  the  gate 
and  invites  repentance.  I  too  have  thrice 
denied  the  Lord  and  He  has  forgiven  me. 
Repent  and  God  will  forgive  thee  and  take 
thee  to  heaven. 

Andrew  was  the  most  fiery  of  the  apostles. 
If  a  city  received  not  his  preaching,  he  was 
wroth  (and  wished)  that  a  fire  from  heaven 
might  bum  it.  Hence  another  apostle  was 
sent  with  him  to  remind  him  of  the  Lord's 
command  to  preach  to  all  nations.

From  a  Homily. 

I  am  in  company  with  the  Apostles, 
Prophets  and  Patriarchs,  while  the  Judges 
(/cpiTifs)  declare  for  Jesus  +uAeiKi  eic  in 
sounding  the  trumpet  {craXni^eiv).  I  recalled 
the  dread  judgment  and  my  whole  body  —  ? 
TAeeciK  and  my  spirit  was  disturbed.     What 

shall  I  then  do  ? (sinners)  shall  go  to 

the  Valley  of  Jehoshaphat  (Joel  iii.  2,  12) 
and  receive  the  reward  of  their  deeds.  Hast 
thou  considered,  oh  man,  the  terror  of  that 
hour  when  each  is  weeping  for  sin  ?

the   other,   the   Apostles   even    and    Saints 

weeping   as   they   judge, murderers 

being  sent  to  a  place  of  weeping  and  gnashing

[Myers.] 
From  a  Homily,  treating  here  of  patience 
and  endurance,  the  triumphs  of  the  pure  in 
heart,  who  shine  as  the  sun,  and  the  need  of 
open  resistance  to  declared  enemies,  although 
to  those  nearer  us  milder  methods  may  be 
employed.  This  is  illustrated  by  David's 
attitude  towards  Goliath  and  Saul  respectively. 
Before  a  multitude  we  should  be  silent  or 
speak  only  what  is  useful  and  true  as  did  the 
prophets  ;  before  the  wise  or  virtuous  we 
should  be  humble.

but  for  u,  M,  Zoega  tab.  iii,  no.  xii.).  Initials

"  my  father,"  he  adjures  to  forsake  the  com-

columns  of  24  lines  each,  is  written  in  a 
somewhat  uneven,  square  character  {cf.  Rossi, 
/  Papiri  . . .  di  Torino  i,  tav.  iii,  but  for  e  and

initials  were  not  enlarged,  but  on  fol.  b 
a  plain  paragraph- mark  is  used. 

From  the  Fayyum.         [Flinders  Peteie.] 

Presumably  from  a  Homily,  though  possibly 
from  a  narrative.    The  subject  is  very  obscure. 


Someone  is  addressed  in  2nd  fem.  sing.,  while 
another  person,  3rd  masc,  is  throughout

text,  in  one  column,  is  written  in  a  large 
hand  of  Zoega's  4th  class. 

[Hay.] 

From  a  Homily.  The  text  of  the  largest 
fragt.  refers  to  the  pride  of  life  and  the  rich 
young  man  of  Mt.  xix.  16  ff.  and  mentions 
Elias,  Peter  and  Paul.

Papyrus  xvi,  sheets  1,  5  and  Or.  1013  C. — 
Four  fragments  ;  the  largest,  paged  qTi,  qe, 
8i  X  7f  in.  The  text,  in  one  column  of  more 
than  19  lines,  is  written  in  an  irregular, 
heavy  hand  (cf.  Zoega,  cl.  iv,  no.  xix).  Para- 
graphs are  distinguished  by  small,  angular 
marks,  or  less  often  by  horizontal  strokes  in 

the  margin. 

[Wilkinson,  Hat.] 

From  a  Homily  or  Commentary,  of  which

The  collection  contains  other  small  fragments 
of  this  MS.,  e.g.  Pap.  viii,  23. 

[HiT.] 

From  a  Homily.  The  passage  here  pre- 
served deals  with  Christ's  miracles  of  healing 
and  bringing  to  life  which  foreshadowed  our 
resurrection.  He  hungered  and  thirsted 
that  man  might  eat  and  drink  at  the  table  of 
His  kingdom.

[Sams,  Butlkr.] 

From  one  or  more  Homilies(?).  The 
largest  fragt.  refers  to  Christ's  second  coming 
and  His  redemption  of  men  from  earthly 
troubles,  as  Joseph  was  redeemed  from 
bondage  and  became  a  king  (sic),  and  to  their 
reception  into  the  heavenly  kingdom.  Other 
fragts.  deal  with  dogmatic  questions  and 
show  the  words  "  orthodox,"  "  God  the 
Word,"  "  wholly  God  and  wholly  man,"  "  the 
same  vnoaraa i.<i,  the  same  vpotrconov,  the 
saibe  Lord,  the  same  baptism."  The  patri- 
arch and  the  empress  Theodora  Tpp«)  ojhi- 
Ato[pA]  are  mentioned  in  a  fragt.  whicli 
appears  to  deal  with  the  ablutions  (cere- 
monial or  metaphorical  ?)  of  priests,  while 
the  word  rofio^  in  another  may  refer  to  the 
EpUtola  Dogmatica  of  Leo.

indicated  by  a  horizontal  line  or  {-shaped 
mark  in  the  margin.  The  other  fragts. 
framed  as  Papyrus  xiv  have  no  connection 

with  this. 

[Wilkinson.] 

From  a  Homily.  The  first  words  address 
the  Virgin  as  far  exalted  above  all  birds ; 
then  the  belief  that  birds  could  generate 
without  sexual  intercourse  is  referred  to.

[Wilkinson.] 

From  a  Homily  ;  (p.  pi)  admonishing  to 
work  and  bear  all  trials  (/Sacrai/os)  lest  we 
hear  the  terrible  voice  condemning  us ; 
(p.  pi7.)  reflecting  on  the  transitory,  mis- 
leading riches  of  this  world.  Let  not  the 
darkness  divide  us  from  the  light,  nor  these 
mortal  things  make  us  strangers  to  the  life 
everlasting.  Quotations;  Ps.  cxviii.  71,  Jer.

277. 

Papyrus  viii,  sheets  1,  3,  9, 14.— Fragments 
of  one  or  more  semi-uncial  MSS.,  written  in 
a  small  script.  Sheet  9  at  any  rate  seems  to 
be  by  the  same  hand  as  Pap.  vii,  2.  The 
subjects  of  the  texts  are  very  difficult  to 
determine;  probably  they  are  homiletic. 
There  is  a  large  admixture  of  Greek  words. 
Sheet  9  may  be  from  a  letter. 

The  other  sheets  contain  fragments  of 
uncial  MSS.

one  column  of  19  lines,  is  written  in  an 
upright  hand  with  the  following  character- 
istics ;  A,  u  and  r  are  rounded  and  formed 
of  a  single  stroke  each,  while  e  and  c  are 
angular  and  formed  of  3  and  2  strokes  re- 
spectively {cf.  the  Pistis  Sophia).  Not  more 
than  the  half  of  each  leaf  remains.

of  33  lines  each,  is  written  in  a  very  irregular

19  and  368,  the  latter  being  the  text  of  the

announcement  to  Rufus  of  his  wife's  madness, 
her  murder  of  their  son  and  the  sending  of 
the  dove  to  fetch  Andrew.  {Cf.  the  Ethiopic,

human  form  to  tlie  Virgin  in  order  that  she 
might  not  be  terrified.  His  honour  is  above 
that  of  the  angels  in  the  Old  Test,  tha^vaia, 
who  were  sent  but  to  foretell  the  birth  of 
mortals ;  for  his  mission  was  to  announce 
{(rrjfjLaiveiv)  [the  birth  of  Christ]. 

The  other  fragt.  relates  first  the  healing  of 
a  boy  by  contact  with  the  picture  of  Gabriel, 
the  consequent  conversion  of  him  and  his 
father  and  their  gift  of  1000  solidi  umt  ii^^io

begins  with  God's  promise  (?  repeated  by 
Elijah  to  his  companions,)  to  send  for  him 
a  fiery  chariot.  It  is  presumably  from  a 
Homily.

wished  to  maintain  the  integrity  of  the  faith

able  matters ;  rather  about  repentance  on 
the  one  hand,  complete  righteousness  on  the 
other.  Repentance  indeed  leads  many  to 
salvation ;  yet  those  who,  trusting  to  it,  con- 
tinue in  sin,  fall  and  are  unable  to  rise.  The

Cilicia,"  which  in  the  Boh. -Arab,  corresponds  to  Trake

■was  also  called  Tpox"a  may  have  had  a  part  in  the 
confusion.  The  Boh.  text  confounds  the  place  of 
Chrysostom's  last  exile  with  that  of  his  death,  identifying 
this  place  with  both.  Upon  the  use  of  v^cros,  cf.  Zoega,

Or.  5439(1). — Parchment;  part  of  a  leaf  ; 
3f  XSI  in.  The  text,  in  one  column  of  more 
than  17  lines,  is  written  in  a  small,  sloping 
hand  {cf.  Crura,  Coptic  MSB.  pi.  iii,  no.  xiv 
for  the  type).  The  leaf  was  folded  many 
times  across  its  breadth  and  was  no  doubt 
intended  for  an  amulet.  [Geenfeli,.] 

1  For  this  name  MSS.  Or.  680,  681  have  Maitaw- 
seyanos  ;  the  version  of  Or.  678  is  different  from  these. 
The  Synaxarium  omits  the  incident.

Abgar,  letter  from  Christ  to.  The  pub- 
lished texts  of  the  Coptic  version  are  (1) 
Sa'idic,  by  Pleyte  and  Boeser  in  the  Leyden 
Catalogue,  p.  467,  (2)  by  Sayce  in  Recueil  de 
Trav.  XX.  174,  from  a  graffito  in  Farils,  (3) 
Mid.  Egyptian,  two  by  Krall  in  the  Rainer 
Mittheilungen  V,  p.  lloff.  The  Sa'idic  text 
is  also  in  Cairo  no.  81 38  (ostracon).  Our  text 
agrees  substantially  with  the  Leyden  MS., 
the  chief  variants  being  iimrKuiio  cniiATA.\-

Or.  4919(2). — Parchment ;  a  small  strip  ; 
2)  X|  in.  The  text,  in  21  lines  of  a  minute, 
sloping  script,  consists  of  the  opening  words 
of  the  letter  from  Christ  to  Abgar  {v.  the 
preceding  no.),  followed  by  the  first  words  of 
each  of  the  Qospels  in  the  order  Mat.,  Lu., 
Job.,  Mk.  {ef.  the  Leyden  MS.  Anastasy 
no.  9).  Originally  folded  and  used  no  doubt, 
like  the  last  no.,  as  an  amulet. 

[GfiBNFKLL.]

Or.  3581B(30).— Parchment;  part  of  a 
leaf,  ruled  (pricked  only  at  considerable 
intervals)  and  paged  i],  ii  ;  12^X8}  in.  The 
text,  in  two  columns  of  29 — 32  lines  each, 
is  written  in  an  upright  hand  {rf.  Ciasca  i, 
tab.  xiii).  Initials  are  enlarged  and,  with 
stpps,  ornaments  >,and  sometimes  the  letter 
o,  are  coloured  red. 

From  Ahmim.  [Budge.] 

Abraham,  acts  of.  The  passage  seems 
more  likely  to  refer  to  the  saint  slain  by 
Sapor,  Zoega  no.  ccxxii*  than  to   him  of 


nos.  ccxxii  and  ccxxiil ;  it  may  indeed  be 
from  the  same  MS.  The  following  is  the

text,  in  one  column  of  26  or  28  lines,  is 
written  in  a  very  irregular  hand  {v.  the 
photograph  Journ.  As.,  8ieme  ser.,  ix).  Other 
fragts.  of  the  same  MS.  are  in  the  Bibl. 
Nat.,  Paris  {v.  op.  cit.)  and  in  Berlin,  MS.  Or. 
oct.  409.^ 

Probably  from  Ahmim.  [H.  Wallis.] 

Alexander  the  Great,  history  of.  Published 
by  Crura,  Proc.  Soc.  Bibl.  Archaeol.  xiv.  473ff. 

The  passage  most  nearly  corresponding  in 
the  Syriac  version  ed.  Budge  is  on  p.  170ff. ; 
that  in  the  Ethiopia  ed.  Budge,  on  p.  263  ff. 
But  there  is  very  little  resemblance  in  detail. 

320. 

Or.  3581B(31).  {Partly  formerly  Or.  3367.) 
Parchment;  three  complete  leaves  and  one 
fragt.,  ruled  (pricked)  and  paged  puo — puA; 
— 5  —  >  6f  X  5f  in.  The  text,  in  one  column 
of  22  or  23  lines,  is  -written  in  a  small,  upright 
hand  {cf.  Ciasca  i,  tab.  i,  though  there  the 
script  is  considerably  larger).  Initials  are 
rarely  enlarged.  Some  paragraphs  are  indi- 
cated by  a  ^-shaped  mark.  In  Paris  Vol. 
131',  fol.  93  is  from  the  same  MS. 

From  Ahmim.  [G.  Chester,  Bodge.] 

Antonius,  life  of,  by  Athanasius.  The 
variants  from  the  Greek  (Migne)  are  not 
important ;  the  original  of  the  Coptic  version 
appears  to  have  been  a  very  similar  text.

Apare,  martyrdom  of.  The  text  is,  with 
the  exception  of  very  few  words,  identical 
with  the  Bohairic  version,  Hyvernat,  Actes 
p.  204  {v.  Zoega  p.  61).  The  martyr's  name 
is  here  aha  ahaph  instead  of  aha  Api' ;  we 
have  jHOToiioT(jo  for  yiGTiioTtn  and  iiikgau 
{NiKiov)  for  n;HAt.  The  verb  ziuk,  etotoKO,

Apollo,  acts  of  or  encomium  upon.  Of 
the  various  Egyptian  saints  of  the  name  this 
is  probably  either  the  hermit,  "  A.  par 
angelis "  (v.  Synax.,  25th  Babeh  or  Acta 
SS.,  22d  Oct.,)  or  he  described  in  Hist.

1  Both  these  hermits  are,  like  the  subject  of  our  text, 
credited  with  the  prophetic  gift.  They  are  contem- 
poraries and  both  dwell  in  Upper  Egypt.  The  Apollo  of 
the  Diptych  (Lit.  S.  Bas.  in  Kenaudot,  Litt.  Or.  Col.  i. 
18)  seems  to  be  the  martyr  of  1st  Mesori  (c/.  no.  338 
heloio) ;  but  in  MS.  Curzon  143,  mo  a  second  is  also 
named.  An  unidentifiable  monk  or  hermit  is  often 
among  those  invoked  upon  the  grave-stelae,  e.g.  Cairo 
DOS.  8319,  8320  or  Bev.  egypt.  iv.  7.  The  penitent  assassin 
of  F.  Rossi.  Cinque  MSS.  &c.  (1893)  and  the  Apo- 
phthegmata  (Migne  65, 133,  v.  also  no.  146  above)  is  again 
distinct,  but  the  anchorite  of  Zoega  no.  clxxii  may  be  one 
of  the  hermits  here  mentioned.  On  this  Timothy  v.  no.

however,  uncertain;  the  passage  is  more 
likely  to  belong  to  an  ecclesiastical  history 
such  as  Zoega,  no.  clx,*  in  which  this  same 
story  of  the  Baptist's  relics  is  told  in  slightly

Chamoul  ctauota,^  martyrdom  of.  This  is 
placed  under  Diocletian  (rf.  Zoega  27  and  53, 
where  Pompeius  the  governor  recurs,  and 
Hyvernat,  Actes  99,  where  Chamoul  is  among 
the  victims  of  Arian).  The  martyr  was 
native  to  Arabia  in  the  eastern  Delta.^  Pp. 
1 — 50  of  the  text  are  missing. 

Chamoul,  defying  and  reviling  Pompeius, 
the  governor  {rjyeficji') ,  is  shut  into  a  fiery 
oven  {or  cell  pi)  for  3  days.  When  brought 
forth,  he  is  safe  and  sound,  yet  denies  having 
tasted  food.  Again  refusing  to  sacrifice,  he 
is  placed  on  the  kpixr^Tapiov,  burnt  with 
torches  and  scraped  ecoioKO ;  later  he  is 
skinned.  But  with  Christ's  help  he  bears  all. 
At  length  the  governor,  seeing  that  he  feels 
nothing,  falls  upon  him  sword  in  hand,  but  a 
cloud  of  light  surrounds  Ch.  and  protects 
him.  When  again  in  prison,  Christ  appears 
and  promises  him  a  speedy  victory,  the  gift 
of  healing  and  that  Julius  of  Kbahs' shall 
preserve  his  body  after  death.  While  in  prison 
therefore  he  miraculously  cures  Theodore  son

heathen  kings  to  forget  and  not  to  compel 
him  to  sacrifice  and  he  busied  himself  writing

[Ghkville  Chkster,] 

CoUuthus  of  Antinoe,  martyrdom  of.  But 
this  is  quite  uncertain.  No  proper  names 
occur,  but  Christ's  promise  to  the  saint  of 
three  crowns,'  the  mention  of  "  the  other 
great  graces  of  healing  "  granted  to  him  and 
of  "the  tyrant's  fire"  by  which  apparently 
he  was  to  die,  seem  to  indicate  this  martyr. 
On  the  other  hand,  certain  of  the  promises 
made  him,  e.g.  that  Raphael  should  guard 
his  TojTo?,  recall  the  martyrdom  of  Theodore 
aTpaTr]XdTT]<;  as  given  in  Rossi,  Cinque  MSS. 
(R.  Ac.  Torino,  Memorie,  ser.  ii,  xliii).  The 
following  is  the  text ;

Mart.  Elias,  Amelineau,  Actes  160.  Indeed  Abu  Salih

Cyril  and  Nestorius,  a  narrative  of. 


Cyril's  pity  for  Nestorius  is  aroused  when 
he  •  learns  the  latter's  doctrines  from  the 
avvTayfia  of  his  i^Tqyy](TL<;,  sent  to  a  certain 
Egyptian  ota  xAiivtopA,  and  he  exhorts  him 
not  to  forsake  the  faith  of  the  gospels.  But 
Nestorius  persists  and  is  anathematized  by  a 
number  of  bishops  at  Bphesus  and  then 
banished  by  the  king  to  a  distance  ceiiTonoG 
GTOTiiT.  We  too  should  know  of  his  death, 
that  we  may  learn  how  that  there  is  no  rest 
for  the  blasphemers  of  God.  The  beginning 
of  his  malady  is  then  described  as  want  of 
breath  and  a  swelling  of  the  body  such  that 
his    fingers  became  as  fat  as   cucumbers;*

Heraclides,  martyrdom  of.  This  may  be 
one  of  the  saints  commemorated  on  29th 
Payni.  The  mention  of  Armenius  points 
perhaps  to  the  martyr  of  Hyvemat,  Ades  287 
or  the  other  ib.  301,  while  precluding  him 
of  Euseb.,  Hist.  Eccl.  vi.  The  Paris  leaves 
mention  Theodore  the  scolasticus,  A[no]ubion 
the  [crjunimicuc  and  Phirmos  the  speculator. 
The  first  of  these  is  presumably  the  father  of 
Sergius  and  brother  of  Cyprian  the  praeses 
(r.  Zoega  p.  30,  MSS.  Crawford  40,  43  and 
Leipzig  xxiv,  13). 

P.  lir.  Armenius  eApueiiioc  orders  four 
quaternions  iston  of  soldiers  to  stand  at  each 
side  of  Heraclides  r'rpAK.vire  and  to  toss  him 
(a^xiipiCeiv).  When  he  falls  in  pain  to  the 
ground,  he  bids  beat  him  till  his  right  ribs 
are  broken  and  he  faints  Ano<|?nT  .va  uuoot. 
Then  the  townspeople  cry  that  Julius  of 
KBeec  has  come,*  who,  throwing  water  in  his 
face,  revives  him.  H.  blesses  Julius,  fore- 
telling God's  mercy  on  him  in  return  for  the 
mercy  he  had  that  day  shown.  "  The  leaves 
of  the  Tree  of  Life  shall  continually  pour 
sweet  odours  into  thy  soul.  No  seed  of  thine 
shall  see  judgment  (/cpto-ts)  to  the  third 
and  fourth  generation.  Neither  famine  nor 
hunger  (Xt/ids)  shall  be  in  all  thy  dwellings 
in  this  world.  Thou  shalt  be  numbered 
among  Christ's  martyrs  for  ever.  Amen." 
Then  the  governor  calls  him  and  asks  what

saint  of  the  same  name.

as  the  children  of  a  rich  man,  knowing  his

are  not  independent  is  evident  from  the  recurrence  in  both 
of  Stephanou's  vision  of  the  two  crowns  (l.l.,  230  and  our

the  martyrdom  of  Victor  and  Corona  2rc(/iai>if  (Acta  SS.

that  in  the  old  Arabic  version  Or.  5019,  f.  656  V.  and  C. 
are  made  to  suffer  under  Diocletian  and  that  Sebastianus

only   child,   Sophia    and    Eusebius,  son   of 

Basilius  and  shuts  them  up  at  night  together. 

But  Eusebius  prays  for  help,  has  a  vision  of 

Christ  and  next   day  confesses  Him  before 

the  emperor,  who  thereupon  imprisons  him. 

Then  J.  too,  to  the  emperor's  astonishment, 

confesses  Christ  and  is  eventually  dragged 

through  the  town,  his   heels ^  having  been 

pierced.      On    Stephanou    also    with    1842 

servants   confessing,   Diocletian   decides   to 

send  all  to  Armenius  in  Alexandria  and  in 

the  meantime  they  are  put  in  prison  where 

J.  sees  in  a  vision  God  the  Father  crowning 

Christ.^     As   he   still  repels   the   emperor's 

request    to    worship,   though  the  kingdom 

itself  is   offered   him,   all   are   sent  with   a 

report  {ava^opa.)  to  Armenius,  who  is  to  hand 

them  over  to  Arian  of  the  Thebais  rather 

than  disturb  Alexandria  by  their  slaughter. 

Armenius,  whose  judgment-seat  is  by  the  sea 

{GnnapaOaKaa-a-a^),    sends    them    to    prison, 

where  they  sing  hymns  and  on  being  brought 

out,    500   of   J.'s   servants    leap    upon   the 

burning  altar  (^Sw/xd?)  and  perish,  confessing 

Christ,  on  the  20th  Tybi.     Armenius  at  once 

sends  the  remainder  with  a  letter  to  Arian 

{lacuna).     Sophia,  refusing  to  burn  incense 

and  deaf  to  Arian's  bribes,  is  placed  on  the 

£pfnf]Toipi.ov,   where   she    sings    hymns,    sees 

Christ,  and   at   length  descends  unharmed. 

Stephanou's    constancy    is    punished     with 

severing   and   burning   of   the   breasts   and 

drawing  of  the  nails.     She  tells  J.  she  sees 

angels  bearing  two  crowns,  the  greater  for

A  fragmentary  leaf  attached  to  pp.  pXr, 
pAA  and  probably  numbered  paa,  jmb,  relates 
[Pachomius']  words  to  Theodore  on  Luke  v. 
17,  which  he  predicts  will  be  proved  true 
to-day.  A  man  ill  of  dropsy  comes  begging 
to  be  cured.  [Pachomius]  anoints  him  and 
after  healing  one  who  lay  in  a  chariot  suffer- 
ing from  snake-bite,  returns  and  (p.  pXr)  finds 
the  dropsical  man  whole  and  grateful.  P.  paa 
gives  the  prayer  he  used  for  power  to  heal 
and  tells  of  his  gratitude  to  God  if  a  sufferer 
recovered,  his  resignation  if  he  did  not. 

Smaller  fragts.  have  the  quotations  2  Cor. 
xi.  14  and  1  Joh.  iv.  1.

Pachomius,  life  of.  The  1st  and  3rd 
passages  do  not  correspond  to  any  published 
texts ;  the  2nd  is  found  in  Arabic  on  pp. 
525 — 527  of  Annales  du  Mus.  Guimet  xvii, 
while  Mems.  de  la  Miss.  franQ.  iv.  557  must 
have  preceded  the  same  text  in  another  MS. 
The  1st  passage,  in  its  description  of  the 
opposition  among  his  monks  with  which 
Pachomius  had  to  contend,  recalls  Mems. 
539  {  =  Glar.  Press  no.  57).  The  following

1  Amelineau  is  mistaken  in  stating  {Minis,  de  la  Miss, 
franq.  iv.  485,)  that  this  leaf  (no.  24)  is  from  the  same 
MS.  as  nos.  5,  6  &c.  Those  are  all  from  the  same  MS.  as 
no.  355  below  and  to  them  therefore  the  title  nilocT 
tiBlOC  does  not  belong.  Nor  can  Amelineau's  dating  of 
fol.  42  (l.l.  486)  be  maintained;  for  1.  the  "Persians" 
of  the  colophon  were  but  8  months  in  Egypt,  (ue?- 
jsuoTH,  not  ueejMopn)  from  Mechir  to  Thoth,  2.  he 
who  bought  (1  redeemed)  the  book  from  them  (At|jyujn 
.  .  .  IJTOOTOT  llLin.)  has  an  Arabic  name  Anov  llACp, 
3.  the  colophon  is  dated  in  the  Saracenic  era  (though 
that  need  not  indeed  affect  the  MS.  itself,)  and  4.  the 
script  of  the  MS.  is  of  far  later  date  than  the  7th  cent, 
and  is  more  probably  not  older  than  the  12th  at  earliest.

From  Ahmim.  [Bodge.] 

An  encomium.  The  writer  was  a  bishop, 
possibly  the  patriarch,  and  lived  when  the 
Melitian  heresy,  which  he  had  in  vain  at- 
tempted to  extirpate,  still  flourished  in  Siut. 
The  text  appears  to  narrate  here  the  con- 
version of  a  heathen  and  his  maid-servant  by 
the  mediation  of  a  martyr,  presumably  the 
patron  of  the  tott-o?  in  which  this  discourse 
was  held  and  possibly  Claudius ;  ^  it  proceeded 
then  to  relate  further  examples  of  the  saint's 
benevolence.      It   seems  that  the   tottos   in

question  was  not  in  but  to  the  north  of  Siftt ; 
but  inaccuracy  of  orthography  makes  this 
doubtful.  The  feature  of  the  Melitian  heresy 
here  cited  is  their  division  of  the  persons  of 
the  Trinity.     The  following  is  the  text ;

A  Saint  and  an  Emperor,  interview  between. 
The  reading  of  one  name,  Zeno,  in  the  title 
on  fol.  b  is  all  but  certain  and  the  name  twice 
following  AHA  seems  to  be  B6sa.  There  are 
no  means  of  dating  the  death  of  Shenoute's 
successor  of  this  name  ;  but  it  is  possible  he 
survived  till  after  Zeno's  accession.*  The 
text  would  appear  to  be  related  to  that  in 
Mens,  de  la  Miss,  franf.  iv.  833  (a  different 
MS.,)  and  also  to  fragts.  v — xiv,  xvi  in  Rossi, 
I  Papiri  .  .  .  di  Torino  II,  fasc.  iv,  p.  67  ff. 
Who  the  saint  there  repeatedly  referred  to  as 
"  our  holy  father  "  is  cannot  be  ascertained  ; 
it  does  not  follow  from  Bdsa's  mention  in 
the  title  that  it  is  he.  A  story  of  Shenoule 
in  Constantinople  {Mems.  iv.  42,  380)  recalls 
the  reference  here,  fol.  a,  to  the  poor ;  but 
his  presence  there  under  Zeno  is  impossible. 
The  emperor's  baptism  and  orthodoxy  are

6|  X  5^  in.  A  palimpsest,  the  later  text  of 
which  is  a  magical  prayer  of  the  Virgin  {v. 
no.  368).  The  earlier  text,  which  is  crossed 
by  the  later  at  right  angles,  is  written  in  two

From  the  Fayyura.  [F.  Peteie.] 

Acts  of  a  saint,  much  abbreviated.  The 
text  might  be  from  the  commencement  of 
an  encomium.  The  saint  was  of  heathen 
parentage  but  early  learned  Christianity  from 
his  mother.  On  his  ordination  he  began  to 
work  miraculous  cures.  God's  blessing 
rested  on  the  house  of  Arsenius  with  whom 
he  lodged.  The  idol  in  a  temple  fell  as  he 
entered.  The  reference  to  Athanasius,  fol.  b 
7,  is  not  intelligible.  That  in  1. 15  may  show 
that  he  is  the  subject  of  the  work.^

Two  monks,  story  of.  One  goes  12  miles 
uiAAioii  into  the  desert ;  the  other  remains  in 
the  small  abode  iiAiij^tone  outside  the  village, 
taking  an  oath  daily  to  abstain  from  food 
till  he  has  walked  out  to  visit  his  brother. 
At  the  6th  hour  he  would  set  forth  and  at 
the  10th  reach  his  brother.  They  would 
then  pray,  eat  and  converse  together  till 
midnight,  when  the  monk  would  leave  the 
anchorite  and  arrive  home  at  day-break. 
This  he  continued  to  do  for  18  years  and  was 
neither  overcome  o-to-rn  eiixov  by  the  demons 
of  the  desert  nor  afraid  of  the  wild  beasts, 
nor  was  he  led  astray  (o-»ca«'8aXi{€ii')  by  his 
handiwork  nor  complaining  at  the  hardships 
of  the  journey.  Then  God  sent  a  famine

From  the  story  of  a  traveller  in  the  desert, 
apparently  similar  to  Amelineau's  '  Voyage

Papyrus  XCVIII  (Greek).— A  long  fragt., 
30  X  8i  in.  and  two  small  fragts.  The  recto 
bears  a  horoscope  in  Greek  followed  by  a 
text  in  an  Egyptian  idiom  but  Greek  letters. 
The  fibres  are  parallel  with  the  text,  which 
consists  of  parts  of  72  lines  and  follows 
immediately  on  the  Greek.  It  occupies  the 
bottom  of  col.  4  and  the  whole  of  cols.  5  and 
6,  though  of  the  last  only  part  is  preserved, 
much  else  too  being  damaged  and  illegible. 
The  script  is  small,  ligatured  and  difficult 
(r.  the  photograph  in  Kenyon,  Catal.  of  Oreek 
Papyri  i.  Atlas  pi.  74).  [H.  8ix)bart.] 

Astrological  work.  Published  (cols.  4,  5) 
by  Goodwin,  Aeg.  ZeiUchr.  1868,  18fF.  who 
regards  it  as  "  perhaps  a  translation  of  the 
Greek  "  which  precedes  it.  It  is  at  any  rate 
of  a  similar  nature.  The  dialect  exemplified 
is  of  Upper  Egypt  and  seems  to  combine 
features  of  the  Ahmlmic  and  Sa'idic.  Goodwin 
dates  the  Greek  text  in  the  middle  of  the  2nd 
century;  Weyer  somewhat  earlier  (r.  Kenyon, 
/./.,  text  127).'

which,  from  its  contents  and  measurements, 
may  possibly  not  belong  to  the  rest  of  the 
work.  The  pages  of  the  Ist  scribe  are 
numbered  on  the  rectos  only ;  those  of  the 
2nd  on  rectos  and  versos.  PaJaeograph.  Soc.^ 
Or.  Ser.,  pi.  xlii  shows  the  work  of  the  1st, 
Hyvernat,  Album,  pi.  ii.  2  that  of  the  2nd 
scribe.  The  contrast  between  them  is  greatest 
in  the  letters  a,  o,  o,  c,  r,  j^,  z,  <r.  There  is 
much  resemblance  in  the  o  and  c  of  the  1st 
scribe  to  no.  279  above.  The  marginal  cor- 
rections to  the  work  of  the  2nd  scribe, 
pp.  jT;  rio,  T\,  pun,  pot.(?),  appear  to  be  by 

the  1st  scribe.

Document  {iyypa<f>ov)  in  which  Philemon,  Panachore  and  Prese  (?)  npece,  npuj'ie 
sons  of  Joseph  address  the  children  of  Athanasius  and  of  Katharon  KUAopoii,  the  latter 
being  herself  a  daughter  of  Daniel.*  A  wall  had  been  built  by  the  writers,  at  the  bidding 
of  the  8ioiKr)T7]<;,  Peter  son  of  Komes,^  apparently  between  their  property  and  that  of 
the  persons  addressed.  For  this  (or  for  its  rebuilding)  the  cost  is  now  to  be  divided, 
the  wall  being  the  joint  property  of  both  parties.  The  text  is  obscure.  The  date  is 
the  1st  (or  4th)  Pharmouthi,  7th  Indiction.  There  are  5  witnesses  none  of  whom 
recurs  elsewhere.

Financial  document  in  which  Mark  and  Peter  are  named,  the  former  stating  that 
he  has  given  or  paid  10  drachmas  repeAu  and  other  sums,  though  the  text  is  too 
obscure  to  allow  of  a  complete  description.  There  is  no  date  or  magistrate's  or 
witnesses'  names.

Papyrus  IV  (leather),  A. — 24xl6J  in.  The  text,  in  one  column  of  about  40  lines, 
is  written  in  a  large,  sloping  hand  with  scarcely  any  ligatures  (facsimiled  in  Th.  Legh's 
Narrative  of  a  Journey  Ac.  London  1816  ;  rf.  Revillout,  Acles  ^c,  pll.  8,  9  for  the 
type).  On  the  vergo  is  a  short  endorsement.  The  ink  has  so  faded  or  corroded  that 
the  text  can  rarely  be  read  with  any  certainty.  This  remark  applies  in  varying  extent 
to  all  the  MSS.  of  Papyrus  IV.  The  notary's  name  is  illegible.  A  MS.  from  Gebelein 
apparently  very  similar  to  these  is  published  by  Krall,  Deiikschri/ten  der  kaiserl.  Akad. 
(phil.  hist,  cl.)  xlvi.     For  a  commentary  on  these  MSS.  v.  Crum  in  Bee.  de  Trav.  xxii.  223. 

From  Aswftn.  [Th.  Legh.] 

Deed  (n-peurt?)  addressed  by  Thecla  daughter  of  Constantino  (?)   and  ?,  of  the 

town  of  KSlsei  on  the  east  (bank),*  to  Joseph  the  sailor  niiooti  son  of  Stephen  and 
Amana.  She  had  borrowed  from  him  19  solidi  and  now,  as  repayment,  assigns  to 
him  and  his  heirs  her  paternal  estate  (xr^/xa)  consisting  of  17  ^inA(?).  Thecla  swears 
by  God  and  king  Mercurius*  to  abide  by  this  contract.  Neither  she  nor  Joseph  being 
able  to  write,  they  sign  with  crosses.     The  following  is  the  text ;

Will  {huiBriKrj*)  in  which  Eudoxia  of  Kfilsei  on  the  east  (bank)  daughter  of  Sergius 
c^epKMC  (?)  and  Natia  addresses  Maria,  Seion  and  Athanasia  daughters  of  Joseph  the 
sailor  and  of  Eirene  of  the  same  town.  She  recalls  the  loan  by  Joseph  (since  deceased) 
of  19  Bolidi  to  her  grandmother  Thecla  {v.  the  last  no.)  and  mother  and  the 
further  loan  to  herself  of  9  solidi  and  she  now  confirms  to  the  daughters  of  Joseph 
the  possession  of  her  whole  trr^/ia  "from  its  southern  to  its  northern  boundary."

Papyrus  IV  (leather),  B. — 15x9^  in.  The  text,  in  one  column  of  37  lines,  is 
written  in  a  regular,  sloping  hand,  similar  to  those  of  the  preceding  nos.  The  ink  is 
in  many  places  much  faded.  There  is  an  endorsement  of  9  lines  on  the  verso,  the 
last  giving  the  notary's  name,  John  the  deacon  son  of  Mena,  who  wrote  also  the 
next  no.     The  MS.  was  folded  7  times  across  its  width. 

From  Aswan.  [Th.  Legh.] 

Deed  in  which  Menanta  daughter  of  Mariham  native  of  Kyrsh^^  but  living  at 
Pordippa^  and  Ananias  [her  husband]'*  address  their  son  Abraham(?)  and  his  wife,  also 
named  Menanta,  to  whom  they  sell  5  portions  of  land  termed  baika?.*  The  details  of  the 
transaction  cannot  be  clearly  determined.  The  date  is  the  1st  year  of  the  reign  of 
king  John  (v.  the  next  no.).  Various  high  offices  are  held  by  George  {v.  the  next  no. 
and  no.  451),  to  whom  "  all  the  Ethiopians,  from  Tihmauara^  to  the  Castrum  of  Philge," 
are  said  to  be  subject.  Metania  is  bishop  of  Korte  while  Marcus,  Peishate  and  uHxeMKOTA® 
bear  titles  illegible  or  unintelligible.     The  following  is  the  text.

Papyrus  IV  (leather),  B. — 16  xO^  in.  The  text,  in  one  column  of  some  40  lines, 
with  3  or  4  on  the  verso,  is  written  apparently  in  a  regular  hand,  similar  to  those  of 
the  preceding  numbers.  But  such  is  the  condition  of  the  ink  that  scarcely  a  letter 
is  legible. 

Prom  Aswftn.  [Th.  Legh.] 

Presumably  a  deed,  like  the  other  MSS.  of  Pap.  IV.  At  the  end  of  1.  1  iippo, 
at  the  end  of  1.  4  ntiopoiioc  and  in  1.  5,  rtioprio[c  u  iiojnAp  a:cii[T]iioBAAiA  may  pei'haps

Papyrus  IV  (leather),  F  and  Q. — These  are  parts  of  one  MS.,  F  being  the  upper, 
G   the   lower   portion;    together  20x15  in.      There   is   a  text   on   each   side;   that   on

hinden  their  ideuliiication.     tMiHii  =  aynulov;  ef.  no.  447.

the  sides  which  now  have  the  gilt  lettering  on  the  frames  is  apparently  a  palimpsest 
and  quite  illegible.  The  two  texts  on  the  other  sides  are  written  in  clear,  sloping 
hands,  very  similar  though  not — as  the  notaries'  names  show — identical.  They  do 
not  resemble  the  hands  of  the  other  MSS.  in  Pap.  IV,  being  less  stiff  and  more  ligatured 
{Of.  Aeg.  Zeitschr.  1885,  Taf.  1.  v,  vi  or  Crum,  Coptic  MSS.  from  the  Fayyum,  pi.  3,  xiv). 
The  form  fi  is  frequent.     The  ink  has  not  corroded  as  in  the  other  MSS. 

From  Aswan.  [Th.  Legh.]   ' 

1.  Security  (dcrc^aXeia)  or  Renunciation  {anoTayy])  addressed  by  Mailanne  to  —  (masc.) 
who  had  won  a  law-suit  against  her  and  demanded  this  deed,  the  exact  purpose  of 
which  it  is  difficult  to  see.  The  subject  of  litigation  seems  to  be  certain  clothes  piytou. 
The  date  is  the  20th  Phaophi,  11th  Indiction.  The  name  of  the  eparch,  at  the  door 
of  whose  house  "in  the  midst  of  the  men  of  Kourte"  the  deed  was  drawn  up,  is  but 
partly  visible.     That  of  the  notary  is  latros. 

2.  Document  (ypafjifiaTLov)  addressed  by  Nalandouae  daughter  of  Toupels-?  and  of 
Markunei,  the  potter  of  the  village  of  — shi,  now  residing  in  Talmis,  to  Maria  daughter 
of  Susanna  of  Pachoras  and  "  of  the  same  ycVo?."  At  Kelsei  Maria  had  won  a  law- 
suit against  her  of  which  this  deed  appears  further  to  confirm  the  results.  Beyond 
this  a  former  loan  or  sale  by  Nalandouse  to  Pouthius  is  dealt  with.  The  date  is  the 
8th  Mesore,  12th  Indiction.  No  magistrate  is  named.  The  notary  is  the  -j^apTov- 
KdpLo^  of  Talmis,  Severus  son  of  Elissaius.

Letter  introducing  the  archpriest,  Apa 
Cyrus  KTpoc,  bearer  of  the  Archbishop's 
festal-letter  (iopTacrTiKtj),  to  the  brethren^  of 
the  Castrum  (?  of  Jerae).  The  festal-letter 
is  to  be  read  in  the  churches  of  the  Castrum 
as  is  customary.^  The  next  sentence  is; 
"  and  [he  desires  also]  that  thou  pay 
{anoXoyi^CLv)  him  his  Kavcov  without  a  single 
loaf  lacking."  Here  Kavotv  may  be  a  fixed 
due  or  tax  {v.  Suicer,  s.v.  no.  vi,  Du  Cange

The  writer  of  our  letter,  who  uses  the  1st 
sing.,  is  presumably  the  local  bishop.  The 
date  is  the  5th  Mechir,  15th  Indiction.^  The

Add.  31,290,  foU.  286, 287.— Paper.  These 
are  C.  W.  Goodwin's  copies  of  papyri  in  the 
l/ouvre.  No  size  or  other  description  is  given. 
The  text  of  no.  1  is  apparently  in  16  lines. 

[Mrs.  a.  a.  Goodwin.] 

1.  Letter  from  Cyriacus  (kvpikoc^)  to 
Pesynthius,  bishop  of  Coptos.  This  and  many 
other  papyri,  forming  the  bishop's  corre- 
spondence, are  enumerated  in  Devdria's  CaUi- 
logue  (1874),  pp.  228ff.,  where  they  are 
numbered  inv.  2405  and  2406.  Pesynthius 
lived  during  the  Persian  occupation  (A.D. 
619 — 629)  and  is  commemorated  in  the 
Synaxarium  on  the  13th  Epiphi.'  One  of 
these  papyri,  also  from  Cyriacus,  is  published 
and  another  translated  by  Revillout,  Aeg. 
ZeiUehr.  1879,  86. 

The  present  letter  (presumably =Deveria 
xiii.  15)  has  several  lacunae  and  its  subject 
is  obscure.  The  writer  had  sent  the  bishop's 
letter  to  the  SioiAoynjs  and  sends  a  copy 
(amiypat^v)  of  it  (?)  to  the  bishop  himself 
by  the  present  messenger  {ypafinaT7}(l>6po^). 
Finally  he  says  he  is  sending  3  lemons  KirpA 
(KiTpov),  a  pomegranate  and  a  few  vegetables

seems  to  defend  himself  against  certain  "dis- 
graceful" accusations  (cyxXTjaa),  brought 
apparently  by  the  deacon  Heracleides  (11.  10, 
11,  13,  21,  24,  verso  1)  and  reported  by  the 
priest  Polycrates  (11.  6,  9).  The  bishop's 
threats  are  mentioned  and  condemnation 
is  possible  (1.  12)  ;  he  can  but  trust  to  be 
cleared  at  the  Last  Judgment  (?),  1.  26  nA2An

Letter  from  —  (sing.)  to  an  ecclesiastical 
superior  (2nd  pi.),  perhaps  his  bishop,  who

in  the  Bodleian. 


"  they  await  help  from  God  and  your  revered 
fathership."  The  person  addressed  is  further 
exhorted  to  add  to  his  former  benefits  by 
entreating  his  o-uWciroupyd?^  on  their  behalf, 
"  for  I  know  that  he  will  [not]  repel  you  "

Letter  from  John  the  bishop  to  Mercurius

that  "  our  father  who  is  among  the  saints  "^ 
has  been  dead  since  the  15th  of  Phaophi ; 
"  yet  since  ye  wrote  while  he  was  still  living, 
ye  shall  find  that  I  have  carried  out  your 
desire."  The  letter  ends  with  greetings  to 
all  the  clergy  of  the  oity.  The  following  is

Letter  addressed  by  John,  an  inferior,  to

been  ill  enixH  t^iomg  unicriii|.  The  dialect 
has  a  Mid.  Egyptian  tendency;  cf.  ubk,  i4eq  = 
iJAK,  UAq,  Aqxeer  =  AqTAAT.  The  form  ene- 
CTOTAH?  (twice)  for  eTrtcrroXi)  is  remarkable. 
The  text  terminates  on  the  verso. 


1  It  is  possible  that  this  is  one  of  the  papyri  mentioned 
in  no.  466.  But  no  description  of  these  having  been  yet 
published,  it  must  remain  doubtful.

be  too  early.

The  date  is  given  twice ;  first  with  501 
incorrectly  as  the  corresponding  Saracenic

year  of  the  world  added,  while  the  Saracenic 
date  is  replaced  by  an  obscure  Greek  phrase 
relative  to  the  moon.*  This  colophon  ends

Parts  of  a  Greek-Sa'idic-Arabic Vocabulary 
apparently  identical  with  that  in  Paris  MS.  44 
often  cited  by  Peyron  and  described  by

that  our  MS.  was  less  accurately  written  than 
that  in  Paris.     In  script  they  are  very  similar.

Ode  of  Moses  (Exod.  xv.  1 — 19).  Only  the 
latter  parts  of  the  lines  remain.  Each  verse 
is  separated  by  two  oblique  strokes.  The 
text  shows  a  mixture  of  dialects  in  which 
Bohairic  forms  predominate ;  cf.  the  version 
of  no.  493,  which  is  more  thoroughly  Mid. 
Egyptian.

II.  Fibres  parallel ;  text  in  the  reverse

vv.  41 — 65/  with  lacunae.  Graf's  fragt.  has 
vv.  60,  61.  The  writing  on  its  other  side  is 
illegible. 

This  text  is  followed  by  a  clause,  contain- 
ing perhaps  the  names  of  the  local  bishop 
and  abbot.^  After  |n]|)to(t)HTHc  only  2  or  3

On  fol.  a  the  fibres  are  at  right-angles  to  the

Zoega's  3rd  class,  but  for  the  a  which  is

103  X9i  in.  Almost  every  leaf  is  now  in  a 
dilapidated  state.  The  pagination  is  lost 
but  the  fragt.  bears  on  p.  17  the  quire-mark

text  is  written  in  2  columns  of  20  or  21  lines 
each,  in  a  fine,  rounded  uncial  recalling  the 
Cod.Marchal.  (Q)  in  the  letters  a,a,k,  a,  11,  y,«o, 
while  in  n,  o,  c  the  forms  are  those  of  Zoega's

the  peculiar  forms  mentioned  in  no.  498. 
Initials  are  slightly  enlarged,  recede  beyond 
the  other  lines  and  have  al)ove  them  in  the 
margin  short,  horizontal  strokes.  There  is 
no  other  ornament.  Tlie  colon  is  the  only 
stop  employed.  Superlineation  is  very  rare. 
The  later  text  is  described  beluw. 

[C.  MiriiCH.]

-  This  title  does  not  appear  elsewhere.  Peter,  27th 
jiatriarch  of  Alexandria,  wrote  a  liturgy  (v.  Eenaudot, 
Hkt.  124) ;  but  this  prayer  is  not  in  it.

nothing  is  legible.

short  paragraphs. 

A  series  of  petitions — or  rather,  their 
opening  words — from  a  prayer  for  the  crops, 
for  cessation  of  troubles,  for  good  govern- 
ment, for  the  triumph  of  orthodoxy,  for  the 
souls  of  the  departed,  (verso)  for  worthiness 
to  approach  God  and  to  bless  the  people.

[Geaf.] 

This  appears  to  be  the  final  clause  of  the 
Diptych,  following  the  list  of  saints  and  com- 
memorating the  deceased  local  bishops  and 
others.'  The  text  is  in  Greek.  Above  it 
the  papyrus  is  blank  and  this  points  to  its 
employment  for  insertion  at  the  service  after 
the  list  in  more  general  usage  had  been 
recited.

Or.  4718(4). — Papyrus  ;  a  leaf  in  one  sells, 
the  upper  part  being  lost;  16x10  in.  The 
text,  which  is  in  one  column,  is  written 
upon  both  sides  in  a  regular,  sloping  hand  of 
some  size  and  without  ligatures  (r/.  Hyvernat, 
Album  pi.  X,  dated  A.D.  1003,  which  it  much 

resembles). 

[Ghaf.] 

Liturgical  text.  The  language  is  Greek, 
not  Coptic,  but  the  matter  regards  the  Coptic 
church.  The  text,  so  far  as  extant,  appears 
to  apostrophize  or  mention  in  turn  God,  the 
Virgin,  Apostles  and  the  ecclesiastical  hier- 
archy, beginning  with  the  patriarch,  Chael — 
probably,  to  judge  by  the  script,  the  56th 
patriarch  (881 — 909) — next  naming  Victor 
the  bishop  of  Arsinoe  and  then  the  inferior 
clergy.  The  purpose  of  such  an  enumera- 
tion is  not  clear;    the  form  in  which   the 

>   V.  Renaudot  i,  18,  Tuki,  Mittale  pK^. 


clauses  are  cast  forbids  us  to  see  in  it  a 
diptych.  The  texts  on  recto  and  verso  do 
not  appear  to  be  one.  But  such  is  the  cor- 
ruption of  the  Greek  that  I  cannot  offer  any 
further  description. 

Ifecto.  The  fibres  are  at  right-angles  to 
the  text. 

At  the  top,  apparently  a  title  |aiiiii- 
ronco' : —  ,  followed  by  20  clauses  each  of 
which  except  the  last  begins  with  ka.\uc  and 
ends  with  cYiiiiirouce*  or  cniiii.  Between 
these  words  stand  successively  the  following 
names  and  titles  mostly,  it  seems,  in  the 
genitive  and  each  followed  immediately  by  a 
stop  thus  /.

Liturgical.  So  much  at  any  rate  the  words

incoherent  scribbling,  though  it  might  be  part

beginning  of  a  letter.  Parallel  with  the  fibres 
are  (2)  a  text  in  small,  uneven  semi-uncials, 
difficult  to  read  owing  to  the  corrosion  of  the 
ink,  and  beside  it  {'^)  an  account,  written  in 
an  irregular  and  quite  different  script.

Parts  of  Hymns  or  other  metrical  com- 
positions.' The  first  section  ppeaks  allegori- 
cally  of  "  my  new  garden,  the  Church,"  where 
sweet-smelling  roses  grow.  "  My  grove  is 
Christ ;  the  roses  that  I  have  planted  there* 
are  the  true(?)'  Gospels."  The  second  section 
seems  to  relate  to  the  finding  of  the  bones  of 
John  the  Baptist  and  Elisha.*  "  When  thou 
enterest  that  desert  (?),'  thou  shalt  find  the 
head  which  Herod  took  with  the  coat  of  hair 
thereon  and  the  leathern  girdle  that  binds 
it  about."  The  reference  to  "Elisha  the  pro- 
phet" is  obscure.     The  third  section  treats

VAEIOUS    LITEEARY    TEXTS. 


520. 

.  Or.  4918. — Papyrus;    a  fragt. ;    5x4  in. 
The  fibres  are  parallel  to  the  text,  15  lines^ 
of  which  are  visible,  written  in  one  column 
of  small,  thick  uncials,  but  so  faded  that  the 
character  can  scarcely  be  described. 

From  the  Fayyftm.  [Gbenfell.] 

Homiletic(?)  text.  This  is  quite  uncertain. 
The  phrases  atr2.otia  iihot  . . .,  :!icuni  miiiAi 
lira  <t>f  are  legible.     The  verso  is  blank. 

521. 

Or.  4919(5). — PapjTus  ;  a  small  fragt.  of 
thin  material ;  2^  X  2|  in.  The  text  is  written 
on  both  sides  in  a  very  fine  uncial  band  {cf. 
Rossi,  /  Fajtiri  . .  .di  Torino,  fasc.  i,  tav.  iii). 
It  was  probably  in  one  column.  ^  is  of  the 
form  described  in  no.  498. 

From  Siut.  [CoL.  T.  L.  Fraseb.] 

Unidentified  text,  presumably  a  narrative. 
The  name  Samuel  occurs  and  might  po««8ibly 
refer  to  Samuel  of  Kalaraon.  The  interest 
of  the  fragt.  lies  in  its  dialect  which  shows  a 
remarkable  verbal  prefix,  ^A^•,  ?Aq-,  eAv-.  Pub- 
lUhed  by  Crum,  Aeg.  Zeitschr.  1898,  139. 


522. 

Or.  4920(1).  —  Papyrus;     some  24  small 
fragts.   from    the  binding  of   a   book  ;    the 


largest  2^  x  3^  in.  Many  of  them  show 
nothing  legible.  Tlie  script  much  resembles 
that  of  the  Rainer  Fiihrer  1894,  Taf.  vii  which 
Mr.  Kenyon  is  inclined  to  ascribe  to  the  4th 
century.  Apparently  the  text  was  in  one 
column  across  the  page;  but  this  is  un- 
certain. 

[Gbenfell.] 

Remnants  of  a  Gnostic  (Ophite)  work  or 
of  one  descriptive  of  Gnostic  doctrines.  This 
is  clear  from  the  word  laldabaoth.'  There 
occur  besides  the  words  "  seven  powers  (i^ov- 
a-ia),'*  "he  sang  (?  vfivttv),"  "they  manifest 
what  is  hidden,"  "Wisdom  (To-o<^ia),"  "  Faith 
(tttiotis),"  "  The  army  (crrpana)  of  — ." 

The  dialect  shows  a  mixture  of  Ahmimic 
and  Sa'idic  forms,  the  former  being,  it  seems, 
in  a  majority  ;    cf.  aba.\,  Aepnni,  ovoni,  «io, 

TUnO,  AVIie,  J'lTA.

Or.  4920(2).— Papyrus  ;  a  fragt. ;  10x3f 
in.  The  text,  which  may  have  been  in  more 
than  one  column,  is  written  at  right-angles 
to  the  fibres  in  an  upright,  irregular '  hand 


with  very  rare  ligatures  (c/.  the  Rainer  Fuhrer 
1894,  taf.  vii  for  a  considerable  resemblance). 
The  H  has  exactly  the  form  of  Greek  pap.  cxxi 
(Kenyon, CaiaZ.  i,  pi.  5lff.).  The  forms  of  jy, 
(T  are  those  described  in  no.  498.  On  the 
other  side  are  the  remains  of  a  Greek  text 
in  two  columns,  in  a  larger,  clumsy  hand  of  ' 
similar  type. 

From  the  FayyAm.  [Grenfell.] 

An  astrological  text,  treating  of  the  sun 
(npe)  and  moon  (nA2,  nAA2  and  a-eXijvr})  and 
stars,  under  20  (or  more)  heads.  From 
1.  12  some  of  the  phrases  appear  to  repeat 
themselves.

524. 

Or.  5525. — Parchment ;  an  almost  com- 
plete leaf;  14f X9  in.  It  has  been  many 
times  folded,  both  in  width  and  in  length. 
The  text  is  chiefly  on  one  side,  separated  by 
dividing  lines  into  several  irregular  sections. 
The  lines  of  writing  are  very  uneven  and 
often  confused;  the  script  shows  frequent 
ligatures. 

From  Cairo.'  [S.  RAyPALOWiTSCH.] 

Magical  text  consisting  of  incantations 
intended  to  assist  and  protect  a  woman  and 
her  children,  both  bom  and  to  be  bom  ;  or 
perhaps,  especially,  a  woman  about  to  bring 
forth.  The  name  of  Soura  the  daughter  of 
Pelcha  has  been  subsequently  added  at  the 
end  of  some  sections  ;  in  the  text  itself  the 
subject  is  referred  to  as  iiiii.  The  formulae 
occur  for  the  most  part  more  than  once. 

On  the  left  of  the  text  is  a  rude  geome- 
trical  drawing  of  a  figure  with  circular  head 
and  outstretched  arms,  surrounded  with 
gnostic  signs,  oroMes  &c.  and  very  similar 
in  style  to  that  in  the  Turin  magical  papyrus.* 
The  top  of  this  is  lost.  Upon  this  figure  is

*  This  formula  begins  elsewhere  .\abio  AAOe.  "  Watch 
and  guard  on  the  4  sides"  seems  likely  though  difficult 
to  justify  grammatically;  qA  would  have  to  stand  for 
q-\oOT  (tpHJOv)  and  ilcu  for  iiCA  or  rather  CA. 

'  xnAOV  might  be  read  xriAAV  and  so  here  generally 
where  the  letters  auV  are  concerned. 

*  This  unknown  word,  if  indeed  Egyptian,  would  pre- 
sumably end  in  o  in  Sa'idic.  The  prayer  of  Sisinnius 
(v.  b«lo»)  mentions  a  demon  of  the  midday  heat ;  cf. 
ueepe.     It  might  however  simply  =  /xotpa. 

T    r.  Aeg.  Z.  xxxiii,  47. 

*  Has  not  the  appearance  of  an  Egyptian  word,  not- 
withstanding the  q. 

*  BOpr.ilAlA  or  BopuHAlA  is,  as  Mr.  G.  Margoliouth 
points  out,  the  female  demon  Wc-rzelya  of  the  legend 
of  S.  Sisinniua,  preserved  in  Ethiopia  (r.  Basset,  Les 
Apoeri/phet  iv  and  Fries  in  Actei  of  8th  Orient.  Congr.). 
The  Bohairic  vcKUibularies  class  it  with  birds  and  (Kircher 
169,  Labib  Did.,  b.v.,  MS.  Or.  860,  f.  366)  give  for  it 
2..UJ1  and  ,jl~JI  (•)  (<*/■  a  name  in  Gullancc,  11th  Or. 
Congr.,  4tli  sect.,  82,  85),  "  vampire  "  or  "  bogie."  The 
last  of  these  may  also  mean  epilepsy  (v.  Lane).  Is  it 
poaaible  that  the  word  as  written  in  our  text  is  a  cor- 
ruption of  IrtXriy^la  1

The  later  text  is  perhaps  an  amulet,  con- 
taining a  moral  precept.  It  is  described  in 
this  place  owing  to  the  general  outward

that  it  had  some  magical  usage.

Or.  5707. — This  is  the  palimpsest  of  which 
the  earlier  text  is  described  as  no.  504.  "What 
remains  of  the  later  text  is  all  written  by  one 
scribe ;  the  Coptic  portions  in  a  small,  sloping, 
ligatureless  hand  {cf.  Hyvernat,  Album,  pU.  x, 
XX,  Zoega  tab,  vi,  no.  xxxviii),  the  figures 
generally  in  Greek  '  minuscules,'  rarely  (e,  ii) 
of  like  forms  with  the  Coptic  letters.*  Red 
ink  is  used  for  dividing-lines  &c. ;  red  and 
green  for  ornamental  headings  ;  red,  green 
and  yellow  for  the  pictures  {v.  beloio).  On 
several  pages  the  text  has  been  retouched 
with  later  ink. 

The  extant  text  is  divided  into  2  parts ; 
(A)  arithmetical  tables  and  (B)  problems 
relating  to  the  calculation  of  various  measures 
of  area  and  capacity. 

A.  The  tables  are  in  5,  rarely  4,  columns 
and  consist  of 

(1)  foil,  la  —  56,  the  whole  numbers* 
between  7  and  10  and  then  the  multiples  of 
10  up  to  9000,  each  multiplied  successively 
by  ],  10,  100,  1000  then  by  2,  20,  200,  20u0, 
by  3,  30,  300,  3000  and  so  on  ;  e.g. 

C     a     ^    i.e.    7x1=^7 

i     I     o  7X10^70 

C    p    ^  7x100^700

ceded however  by  the  multiplication  of  the 
number  6000  by  the  fraction  in  question, 
though  the  6000  is  never  actually  written. 
The  first  line  of  the  series  itself  is  expressed 
in  Greek  as  well  as  merely  in  figures. 

These  tables  are  identical  with  those  in  the 
Greek  mathematical  papyrus  of  Ahmlm*  where 
they  are  similarly  applied  to  the  number 
6000.*  That  MS.  however  omits  the  initial 
multiplication  by  J  nor  are  the  tables  there 
fully  worked  out  after  that  of  the  i^.  On 
the  other  hand  the  Ahmim  MS.  has  tables  for 
all  fractions  between  y\j  and  -^q,  while  ours 
g^ves  only  a  selection  between   -^  and  -^.

the  case  of  the  prepositions  n-  and  11-  or  hero

looking  for  donkeys.  Let  him  make  haste 
and  let  Philotheus  too  come  with  them.  The 
journey  is  to  be  made  at  night  and  finished 
before  the  sun  rises.  Two  postscripts  are

Letter  from  Ali  to  "  bis  dear  son  "  Ahmed. 
Though  quite  legible  and  all  but  intact,  the 
text  is  of  such  difficulty  that  I  cannot  give  a 
summary  of  its  contents.  The  subjects  dealt 
with  are  various.  The  writer  seems  to  begin 
by  stating  his  poverty  and  by  invoking  God's 
aid  in  which  he  declares  his  trust.  Later  on 
(1.  16)  money-matters  are  dealt  with.  In 
11. 17, 18  several  people  are  greeted.  In  1.  24 
the  writer  apparently  asks  that  his  son  be 
not  sent  to  school.

Letter  from  Cosma  to  the  archimandrite 
George  (?),*  relating  to  two  books  which  he 
asks  may  be  sent  to  the  monastery,  and  to 
old  (TraXaid:/)  wine.*  He  salutes  the  whole 
congregation  over  which  George  presides, 
the  archdeacon  Phoebaraon  and  his  brother 
Chamoul,  "the  beloved  of  my  soul."  In 
11.  9,  10  the  Arabs  ("  Saracens  ")  seem  to  be

Letter  from  Chael  to  the  bishop,  whom  he 
expresses  a  desire  to  see.  In  1.  13  he  begs^ 
not  to  be  forgotten.  The  obscurity  of  the

carelessness ;  cf.  the  spelling  of  the  common

Letter,  probably  addressed  to  an  eccle-

a  request  relating  to  the  belief  of  some 
other  person.  "  The  Chalcedonians  "  are 
mentioned ;  also,  as  it  seems,  the  Chalcedo-

Deuteronomy  v.  23 — vi.  3  (with  gaps  in

the  Sa'idic  (Ciasca)  but  on  the  whole  it  is 
independent.  The  beginning  of  v.  29  it  omits 
while  before  vi.  3  it  inserts  the  Decalogue.^

published  by  Tattam  from  similar  MSS.  one 
of  which  is  now  in  Lord  Crawford's  col-

An  Arabic  colophon,  fol.  165a,  states  that 
this  2nd  part  of  the  MS.  was  finished  on  the 
11th  Hat&r  of  the  same  year;  while  on  fol. 
1056  another  says  that  it  was  written  at  the 
expense  of  the  deacon  and  learned  doctor, 
TQsnf,  son  of  Elias  el-Birmawi,*  of  Cairo. 

The  text  of  both  books  is  here  and  there 
supplemented  in  the  margin  by  variants 
(i^l  iar^)  in  another  hand,  by  more  exact

that  two  original  MSS.  were  confused  together  by  a  care- 
less copyist  or  that  parts  of  two  independent  copies  (by 
one  copyist)  are  here  bound  together.  An  obscure  Arabic 
note  on  fol.  1636  seems  to  support  the  first  supposition.

If  our  souls  are  restrained  (or  girt  about)

cannot  overcome  us ;  but  if  we  depart  from 
God,  they  do  seize  upon  us  .  .  .,"  and  (3)  fol.

and  others  for  those  that  make  offerings  for 
the  dead.  On  fol.  b  are  certain  lessons  for 
the  Marriage  Service  (s  Tuki,  l.l.  cii).

THE  ANAPHORAS. 


788. 

Or.  1239. — Paper;  a  dilapidated  though 
complete  volume  in  its  old  binding  of  stamped 
leather;  160  foil.,  quire-marked  but  not 
paged ;  8f  X  5^  in.  The  text,  in  one  column 
of  15 — 17  lines  with  Arabic  opposite  it,  is 
written  in  a  good  hand  {cf.  Hyvernat,  Album, 
pi.  1,  which  it  much  resembles).  A  few 
rubrics  are  in  red,  but  the  cross  on  fol.  1  and 
the  interlaced  ornaments  at  the  chief  sections 
are  simply  in  black. 

From  Dair  as-Suryan,  Nitria.     [Chester.] 

The  Anaphoras  of  SS.  Basil,  Gregory  and 
Cyril,  for  the  priest's  use  only,  though  short 
cues  for  deacon  and  people  are  occasionally 
(from  fol.  31a)  given.  Briefly  described  in 
Rieu's  Supplement,  no.  18.  On  the  whole  the 
text  is  that  of  Tuki,  though  now  and  then 
divergent.  Fol.  2  =  T.  m ;  foil.  S— 7  is  the 
prayer  of  Severus  {v.  Brightman  144).  S. 
Gregory  begins  fol.  6oa  =  T.  prio ;  S.  Cyril 
on  112rt  =  T.  05T.  The  two  prayers  of  John 
of  Bostra  are  inserted  on  foil.  57a  (orxAsia; 
iiniiGiJCAniu-i  <J)icor,  v.  Br.  187)  and  158a 
(Br.  186),  both  being  without  Arabic.  Foil. 
9,  10,  12  are  later  amplifications  of  the 
original  form  of  text  and  in  many  places 
smaller  alterations  or  additions  adapt  the 
text  to  the  commoner  type,  as  in  Tuki  or  the 


translations.'  An  Arabic  colophon  at  the 
end  of  each  Anaphora  merely  gives  a  prayer 
for  "  the  reader,  owner,  hearer  and  wretched 
scribe."

The  Anaphoras  of  SS.  Basil,  Oregory  and 
Cyril,  preceded  by  the  prayers  of  Evening 
and  Morning  Incense  (=  Tuki,  Mittale,  Iff.). 
Arabic  is  given  only  for  the  2nd  and  3rd 
anaphora.  That  of  Basil  is  complete  (foil. 
35 — 77);  Gregory's,  extending  from  fol.  82 
to  lOOb  (T.  ca),  is  not.  Of  Cyril's  only  foil. 
101  (  =  T.  E^r.),  102  (T.  .lSr>),  103  (T.  ¥ri), 
78 — 81  (T.  tS?  to  end)  remain.  Though  the 
pagination  is  often  elsewhere  erroneous,  the 
sequence  of  the  foil,  is  otherwise  correct.

seizure  and  imprisonment  by  kaunaUaU  from 
the  Citadel,  who  took  him  on  the  27th  Hathor

[E.  J.  Brill.] 

The  text  of  the  MS.  appears  to  be  in  con- 
fusion. After  Doxologies  for  Lent,'  fol.  la  ff. 
give  part  of  the  Pi'ayer  of  Evening  Incense 
( =  Tuki, ilfma/e,  r).  followed  by  an  Anaphora 
composed  from  those  of  SS.  Basil  and  Cyril 
together.*  This  ends  fol.  113a  and  is  followed 
by  the  Order  (t..,^  j)  of  the  Fivefold  Incense ; 
cf.  Tuki  TV.,  who  has  a  much  shorter  version. 
Fol.  125ft  is  again  fromS.  Basil  =  Tuki  pii«rff. 
On  fol.  127ft  begins  the  Deacon's  service  in 
presence  of  the  Patriarch,  =  Tuki  y\\,  but 
the  version  is  longer  and  includes  hymns  and, 
on  fol.  141,  a  list  of  the  Patriarchs.^  On 
fol.  148ft  fF.  are  hymns  for  various  occasions, 
and  on  fol.  1776  ff.  another  series  of  short 
hymns,  called  ao-7racr/xot,  for  use  at  Evening 
and  Morning  Incense  throughout  the  months 
aVid  at  festivals.  Fol.  2446  be2;ins  another 
series  for  the  Birth,  Baptism  &c.,  apparently 
to  be  sung  by  two  choirs,  since  they  are 
headed  alternately  ^^^^  and  ^_j^Jj.  On  fol. 
253  are  ao-Tracr/not  for  the  Virgin's  festivals. 
A  long  colophon,  fol.  2576,  states  that  the 
book  is  a  copy  from  one  in  the  church  of 
Dair  Abu  Sifain  in  Old  Cairo.  It  was  written 
for  the  Church  of  the  Virgin  in  Harat 
Zuwailah,  by  one  of  the  priest's  pupils,  aged 
eleven,  in  A.D.  1872.

the  flight  into  Egypt,  the  birth  of  the  Virgin, 
the  4  beasts,  the  24  elders),  each  of  which  is

Funeral  Services.  The  following  is  the 
order  of  the  services,  which  differs  from  that 
in  Tuki's  Rituale,  where  they  are  often 
longer :  for  a  grown  man,  for  a  boy,  a  woman, 
a  girl,  for  a  woman  who  has  died  at  or  after 
childbirth,  for  a  hegumenus  or  priest  (the 
former  is  not  mentioned  in  Tuki  too  ff.,  where 
the  service  is  also  longer),  a  deacon,  a  monk, 
for  a  man  dying  in  the  Paschal  week,  for  a 
woman  likewise  (not  in  Tuki,  the  lesson 
being  Gen.  xxiii.  1 — xxiv.  1),  the  memorial 
services  a  month,  6  months  or  a  year  after 
death  (Tuki  <f>iA),  likewise  at  the  grave  on 
the  3rd  and  7th  days  after  death  (Tuki  $b),'- 
the  anaphora  of  the  dead,  at  the  death  of  a 
nun,  of  a  patriarch  or  bishop  (this  abbreviated 
^Jt^*ar^).  Arabic  versions  follow  the  Coptic 
texts.     Prayers  are  in  Arabic  only.

the  2nd  (fol.  2296)  was  composed  by  Ibn 
Kabr  for  a  notable  of  his  time  and  may  be 
said  before  the  prayer  (i».Laaj  LiUl  »!|yi  Jjj); 
the  3rd  is  for  a  woman  of  rank,  by  the  same 
author ;  the  4th  for  a  boy ;  the  5th,  perhaps 
by  Ibn  Kabr,*  for  a  girl ;  the  6th,  unusually 
long,  is  called  a  homily  (iia;^)  for  general 
use  by  John  of  Kaliub.*  On  fol.  170  is  a 
dirge  for  general  use,  in  a  later  hand.

1  I  cannot  find  this  elsewhere,  A  Greek  word  in  -dpiov 
would  be  masculine  here.  The  Arabic  means  a  "shell" 
and  thence  a  hollow  vessel.  Possibly  therefore  this  is 
the  concha  Koyicq  or  ciborium  (v.  Goar,  Eucholog.  15). 
The  prayer  is ;  "  God,  who  didst  say  to  Thy  servant 
Moses  . . .,  Make  for  me  vessels  {kci/jl-^Kiov)  and  place 
them  in  the  tabernacle  . .  .,  place  now  Thy  holy  arm  (sic, 
of.  consecr.  of  spoon)  upon  this  Ij.  Fill  it  with  the 
power  of  Thy  Holy  Spirit . .  .,  that  in  it  may  be  preserved 
(cuqi)  the  purity  of  the  remains  (Acii/^ava)  of  the  holy 
body  of  Thy  only  Son  &c."  The  meaning  '  wipe  up  '  for 
coqi  is  suggested  by  the  Greek  text  of  Hyvernat,  Les 
Actes  279  (c/.  Zoega  580  n.),  which  uses  o-jroyytXcj  {Passio 
S.  Petri  Alex.,  ed.  Viteau  81).  The  Latin  version  by 
Anastasius  however  (Mai,  Spicil.  Rom.  iii.  689)  has

THE    THEOTOKIA. 

863. 

Or.  428. — Paper,  a  bound  volume;  279  foil., 

paged  (on  versos)  in  cursive  characters.     The 

text,  in  one  column  of  some  12 — 14  lines,  is 

■written   in    a   very    clumsy,  irregular   hand 

(c/.  Hyvernat,  pi.  Iv.  2  for  the  type).     The

(ij/aX/AwSta),^  "  containing  the  Seven  and  the 
Four^  and  the  rest  of  the  functions  (J'^t) 
of  the  Christian  Church." 

The  materials  of  this  book  are  for  the 
most  part  to  be  found  in  Tuki's  edition,  which 
however  contains  other  pieces  besides.  The 
sequence  too  and  titles  of  the  contents  differ 
much.  Whereas  in  Tuki  the  4  Odes  (ecoc 
f^>i>),  with  their  accompanying  hymns  or 
paraphrases,*  are  given  in  uninterrupted 
sequence  and  then  followed  by  the  series  of 
Theotokias  for  the  7  days  with  similar  accom-

are  Exod.  xv.  1  tf.,  Ps.  cxxxv,  Cant.  Tri.  Puer.  (Dan.  iii), 
Ps.  cxlviii  (and  cxlix,  cl),     Cf.  no.  835.

and  generally  in  acrostical  form  (v.  no.  Siy), 


paniments,  in  the  present  MS.^  the  two 
series  are  combined  :  Ode  1  (f.  22)  is  followed 
by  the  2nd  and  3rd  Theotokias,  Ode  2  (f.  600, 
by  the  4th  and  5th,  Ode  3  (f.  105i)  by  the 
6fch  and  7th  and  Ode  4  (f.  1716)  by  the  1st 
(  =  Sunday).  And  here  each  Ode  or  Theo- 
tokia is  not  only  preceded  by  one  paraphrase, 
as  above,  but  is  followed  by  another^  ^rJ^^ 
of  which  usually  only  the  opening  verses  are 
given  in  Coptic,  the  rest  being  in  an  Arabic 
translation.  The  Theotokia  for  Sunday  (fol. 
178  ff.)  combines  the  texts  of  Tuki  Tia  ff.  and 
Trff.'  It  is  followed  by  various  hymns,  of 
the  two  kinds  above  mentioned^  and  the 
book  ends  with  certain  prayers  (f .  249&  =  T. 
pucv),  the  'Angelic  Hymn'  (&s:\«J,  =  T.  pub), 
Doxologies  (=  T.  i>^)  and  the  Creed. 

On  fol.  279  a  mutilated  colophon  gives  the 
date  A.M.  1435  =  A.D.  1719.

one  column  of  12  lines,  is  written  in  a  coarse, 
modern  hand,  foil.  1 — 4  being  by  a  different 
scribe  from  the  rest.  Two  older  leaves, 
bound  at  the  end  of  the  vol.,  have  no  con-

Kalifib.

Psalmodia  (so  the  colophon,  fol.  195)  or 
collection  of  Hymns  (vu'J'-wl),  "for  the 
month  of  Choiak  and  the  whole  year." '  The 
4  Odes  and  7  Theotokias  themselves  are  not 
given  but  only  the  hymns  {incip.  +a.\i)  and 
i'-^ijio*  referring  to  them.  Of  these,  the 
former  can  mostly  be  found  in  Tuki's  Theo-

of  the  present  MS.=foll.  42,  55,  65,806, 101 
of  the  other.  On  fol.  135  ff.  are  a  series  of 
additional  hymns  taken,  says  the  rubric,  from 
another  MS.  Some  at  any  rate  of  these  are 
likewise  found  in  Tuki,  e.g.  fol.  133 =T.  m, 
J496=T.  cTisr.  A  colophon  fol.  195  shows 
that  the  MS.  was  written  in  A.D.  1863. 

The  obscure  word  «i>ya21  (?)  in  a  rubric  on

From  the  Antiphonary^'JiJl,*  being  short 
hymns  for  certain  (apparently  not  all)  festivals 
of  the  calendar  with  longer  Arabic  versions. 
From  a  volume  containing  only  a  few  months. 
The  festivals  here  occurring  are  S.  Matthew's 
(8th  Phamenoth),  a  series  for  the  Invention 
of  the  Cross  (10th  of  the  same),  S.  Michael's 
(presumably  for  the  12th  Payni,  as  well  as 
"for  all  his  12  feasts"),  the  Consecration  of 
S.  Mena's  Church  (15th  Payni),  the  festivals 
of  Abba  Benoufer  (Onnophrius,  16th),  Abba 
Latson^  (17th),  George  (19th). 

The  hymn  to  Latson  (p.  oh)  is  given  here 
as  a  specimen.

A  collection  of  some  50  hymns,  of  various 
kinds  and  for  various  occasions,  followed  by 
the  deacon's  office  from  the  Anaphora.  The 
hymns  begin  with  the  gj^  for  Easter  and 
Pentecost  =  Tiiki,  Theotokia  k,  after  which 
come  '  odes '  (^J*yb)  for  the  whole  year,  to

cf.  ib.  (|)or.,  for  Easter  cf.  ib.  tt)ntr.  From 
p.  79  are  hymns,  mostly  acrosticaP  and 
introduced  by  the  word  -hAAi  ^'-a^l,  for  the 
festivals  of  Christ,  the  Virgin,  the  archangels 
and  certain  saints  (George,  Mena,  Theodore 
arTpaTrj\dTT)<;,  Mercurius,  Marina').  A  few 
of  these  are  found  in  the  Theotokia  (pp.  149^ 
7:(M,  187=CKH,  220=Tr6,  226  =  13*,  236  =  cq, 
345=TC,  369=5X5,  386ff.=in:ff.,  391  =  ciui), 
others  are  based  upon  its  texts,  e.g.  pp.  333 — 
340  on  iiAff.  From  p.  333  they  are  termed 
alternately  'iAH  and  ^j>-*aji.  One  of  these 
(p.  386 =T.  Gu)  is  atti'ibuted  to  John,  bishop 
of  Samanud  ;  another,  in  Greek  (p.  394)  by 
Al-As'ad,  administrator  of  state-lands  at 
Damietta,*  is  to  be  used  at  the  enthroniza- 
tion  of  a  patriarch  or  bishop.  On  pp.  398, 
400  are  others  for  similar  occasions. 

The  deacon's  office  (p.  409  ff.)  corresponds 
generally  to  that  in  the  Anaphora  (S.  Basil), 

1  This  series  occurs  in  the  Curzon  MS.  131,  f.  120ff. 

-  Others  (pp.  205,  207)  have  as  initials  for  the  stanzas 
the  letters  \,  e,  I,  ii,  p,  <(),  ^,  2C,  representing  1,  5, 
10,  50,  100,  500,  1000(1),  1500(1).

Her  martyrdom,  Hathor  22;  the  consecration  of  her 
church,  Hathor  20  (or  25)."  So  the  rubric  p.  313  ;  but 
this  does  not  correspond  with  the  Calendar.  In  this 
church  is  still  a  picture  of  S.  Marina;  p.  Butler, 
Churches  i.  280. 


from  p.  iH,  but  is  usually  much  abbreviated. 
The  petitions  p.  464  ff.  are  from  S.  Cyril, 
coH  fF.  On  p.  454  is  the  list  of  the  patri- 
archs, ending  with  John  (III,  al-Nekkadi,  ob. 
A.D.  1480),  whereby  the  MS.  can  be  dated. 

At  several  points  a  number  of  leave* 
remain  blank.  It  appears,  e.g.  from  the 
rubric  p.  65,  that  these  were  for  an  Arabic 
version,  never  however  added.

Apparently  from  a  liturgical  book.  It 
shows  part  of  a  description  of  the  building 
of  the  Ark  of  the  Covenant  from  Exodus 
xxxvii.  4ff.  The  text  however  is  not  that  of 
the  LXX  but  approximates  to  the  version  of 
Theodotion  (v.  Field's  Hexapla  i.  153).  In 
its  midst  moreover  are  two  apparently  extra- 
neous dogmatical  phrases  (marked  here  as 
art,  bb)  the  second  of  which  compares  the 
Virgin  with  the  Ark  and,  by  the  words  "  saith 
he,"  shows  perhaps  that  the  passage  belongs 
to  a  homily  incidental  in  some  liturgical 
oflBce.'  But  the  present  confusion  of  the 
text  is  most  likely  due  to  a  copyist's  error.

From  a  Homil}'.  The  following  is  an 
abstract  of  the  text. 

[John]  lay  upon  Jesus'  breast.  Oh,  this 
Giver  of  perfect  and  unchangeable  gifts  !  A 
man  of  flesh  and  blood,  son  of  a  woman, 
rests  on  Jesus'  breast  and  talks  with  Him. 
The  fisherman's  son  becomes  the  beloved  of 
God.  Christ's  breast  in  place  of  the  ship's 
planks  !  After  the  Crucifixion  He  appeared 
to  Simon  and  to  Mary,  calling  them  no  more 
disciples  but  brethren  and  sons  of  God  ;  and 
He  sent  them  the  Comforter.  In  the  various 
trials  of  the  Apostles,  Christ's  love  and  glory 
were  always  with  them.  Peter  and  John 
cured  the  lame  ;  they  healed  the  sick  and  the 
possessed.  Who  shall  recount  their  glory? 
They  are  like  goodly  fruit-trees  and  Christ 
Himself  a  fair  tree.  His  disciples  will 
resemble  Him  at  His  appearance  and  will  sit 
upon  the  thrones  judging  the  world.  Oh, 
the  glory  of  that  day !  The  whole  world, 
since  Adam,  judged  by  these  twelve.  The 
shame  of  Judas  at  that  hour  1  Peter  will  say 
to  him,  '"Why  didst  thou  not  ask  pardon  as 
I  did?'  So  too  Thomas.  But  he  shall  weep 
unheard.  Quotations;  Joh.  xiii.  25,  xx.  17,

From  a  Narrative  relatingr  to  Severus  of 
Antioch  and  his  visit  to  Constantinople.^ 

1  Samuel's  insult  to  the  Sun-god  by  spitting  at  Lim 
is  not  mentioned  in  the  Ethiopic. 

^  This  interview  with  the  emperor  is  presumably  that 
mentioned  by  Zacharias,  ix.  19. 


Pol.  a'  is  from  a  speech,  presumably  by 
Severus,  containing  the  words,  "  Paradise 
did  open  and  the  Tree  of  Life  appeared  ;  the 
heavens  became  earth,  the  earth  heaven ; 
God  was  made  man  and  man  God  ;  God 
descended  and  man  ascended ;  the  glory  that' 
is  in  heaven  was  upon  the  earth ;  He  that 
was  in  the  bosom  of  the  Father  became  in 
the  bosom  of  Mary ;  Whom  the  Father 
begat  in  mystery,  Him  Mary  bare  in  ... " 

Fol.  h.  "...  John,  (Christ)  having  in  truth 
suffered,  according  to  the  irrefutable  certainty 
that  is  in  the  holy  Gospels,  which  God  hath 
given  us  in  His  church,  like  a  stone  of 
adamant,  immovable.  Desist  tben,  oh  king, 
and  bring  not  before  me  nor  this  Christ- 
loving  synod  the  remembrance  of  the  blas- 
phemies of  the  polluted  bishops  that  assembled 
at  Clialcedon.'  But  the  king  and  the  senate 
(cruy/fX>7Tos)  marvelled  at  the  wisdom  of 
Severus  and  the  constancy  (vnofjLour])  of  his 
struggle  (dycif)  and  the  depth  of  his  philo- 
sophy ..." 

In  the  upper  margin  of  the  present  fol.  a 
are  the  remains  of  a  Syriac  note.

(OTOII   IIIBOII    6T(!|>(|><)pill    UriAICVIIIIA    IIOIIAk), 

respected  and  reverenced  by  all,  after  violating 
the  virgin  daughter  of  a  king,  is  incited  by 
the  devil  to  murder  her.  This  he  does, 
giving  out  that  she  had  died  a  natural  death 
(Act>+ xnunf!<::*iiiii  iictipiif  iip<i>iii  iiiboii).  But 
the  queen,  her  mother  is  warned  by  the  devil 
(eVi^ovXof)  in  a  dream  of  the  real  manner  of 
her  death.  (Fol.  b)  She  requires  the  monk 
to 'swear  upon  the  holy  vessels  (tcvfilkiou)  that 
he  is  innocent  of   both  crimes.    He  takes 


"  the  oflBce  (ni<|>tox'joii)  and  consolation  (nco.x-

vessels  and  swears  to  her  ....  "  And  in  all 
this  the  wicked  enemy  left  him  not  at  peace 
(uniKieepi  uuo(|),  till  he  had  estranged  him 
from  the  hope  of  salvation  of  Our  Lord 
Jesus  Christ.  And  after  that  he  had  reduced 
hira  to  desperation,  he  brought  him  forth 
from  his  monastery  to  a  worldly  life  and 
to  devilish  joys  and  pleasures."  But  the

to  be  noticed  that  this  version,  besides  show-

from  the  MSS.  used  by  Ciasca  in  inserting

20  quires,  mostly  of  8  foil,  each ;  11 J  X  8^  in. 
The  leathern  binding,  though  ancient,  is  not 
the  original ;  an  earlier  binding  can  be 
discerned  below  it.  It  is  ornamented  on 
each  side  with  an  8-pointed  star,  the  centre 
of  which  is  formed  of  a  small  gilded  cross. 
Upon  the  sides  and  the  flap  covering  the  edges, 
small  circular  medallions  are  also  stamped 
respectively  with  figures  of  a  goat(?),  a  long, 
homed  sheep  (beside  this  a  small  cross, 'Agnus 
Dei*),  an  eagle  and  a  dove(?).  On  the  edges 
of  the  papyrus-leaves  are  traces  of  scroll-

The  headings  are  in  smaller  characters  of 
the  same  type.  But  9  foil,  at  the  beginning 
and  2  at  the  end  of  the  book  are  due  to  a 
somewhat  later  repairer,  as  probably  also  the 
numerous  patches  repairing  cracks  in  the

[Rev.  C.  Murch.] 

The  MS.  originally  contained  the  books  of 
Proverbs  (frames  nos.  2 — 13),  Ecclesiastes 
(nos.  14, 15), Canticles  (nos.  16 — 20),  Wisdom 
(nos.  21 — 40)  and  Ecclesiasticus  (marked  as 
Sir.,  nos.  41 — 62).  The  paged  fragts.  are 
from  the  first  of  these,  p.  k^  bearing  part 
of  ch.  xi.  Assuming  therefore  that  the 
volume  opened  with  Proverbs,  we  must  con- 
sider the  single  small  fragt.  of  Job  (from 
chh.  xxxviii,  xxxix),  framed  as  no.  1,  to 
belong  to  another  volume ;  though  it  is  of 
course  possible  that  each  book  was  given 
separate  pagination.  Considerable  portions 
of  the  other  books  are  preserved.  The  text 
of  Wisdom  and  Ecclesiasticus  appears  to 
differ  only  in  verbal  details  from  the  Turin 
MS.  {ed.  Lagarde).  The  differences  are  often 
such  as  might  be  due  to  copying  or  dictation. 
The  archaic  doubling  of  the  liquids  b,  .\,  p  is 
not  found  in  this  MS.  What  remains  of  the 
Prologue  to  Eccli.  is  here  printed.'

indicates  a  paragraph. 

From  Ahmim.  [Grenfell.] 

From  a  Diptych,  in  Greek  and  Coptic,  the 
former  being  on  the  versos,  the  latter  on  the 
rectos?  It  does  not  correspond  to  any  pub- 
lished form.  It  contained  apparently  the 
names  of  (1)  the  Old  Testament  patriarchs, 
prophets  &c.,  (2)  New  Testament  saints,  (3) 
the  actual  patriarch  of  Alexandria  and  local 
bishop,*  (4)  certain  martyrs.  The  following 
is  the  text.

*  Possibly  however  the  successive  paragraphs  were  in 
alternate  languages  and  did  not  translate  one  another. 

*  Names  have  been  erased  here  and  replaced  by 
Benjamin  and  Eunomos.  The  parchment  could  hardly 
have  borne  two  successive  erasures  ;  one  would  therefore 
assume  that  of  B.'s  predecessor,  Andronikos4  to  have 
been  originally  written.  But  the  space  seems  too  short 
for  that  name.  The  script  of  the  actual  names  is  of 
much  the  same  type  as  that  of  the  original  scribe.

From  a  book  of  Greek  Psalms  and  Hymns, 
for  use  during  certain  services.  The  former 
are  represented  by  verses,  one  or  two  together, 
selected  from  the  Psalter,^  and  prefaced  in 
each  case  by  their  initial  words  in  Coptic. 
Those  on  pp.  (jija — p2.r  are  Ps.  viii.  12,  xix. 

6,  XV.  8,  XX.  4,  5,  xxi.  23,  24,  xxiii.  6,  ib.  7,

68,  69,  ib.  70,  71,  Ixxix.  2.  The  last  verse 
on  p.  poA  is  cxv.  4,  6.  The  Hymns  on  p. 
potr  £f.  refer  to  and  amplify  the  Trisagion,

that  of  the  2Dd  (fol.  lb)  is  the  same  and  its

he  explains  (ifK^xwi^tw)  to  us  the  commemora- 
tion of  the  24  holy  Elders*  and  Michael  the 
Archangel,  on  the  day  of  their  commemora- 
tion, riz.  the  24th  of  Hathor."  *  P.  had  often 
been  moved  by  his  reason  (Xoyto-/*©?)  to  speak 
of  this  festival  but  had  been  hindered  {kuXwiv) 
by  his  thoughts  iiooyo.  Now  however  they 
were  agreed.  He  tells  of  his  journey  to 
Tripolia  rpinoAic  to  (the  shrine  of)  S.  Leon- 
tius,  the  martyr  of  Christ,  to  whom  God  had 
granted  (;(api{cu')  to  cure  divers  ills.  Leaving 
Cvzicus,  he  went  to  the  isle  called  Patmos,

thence  to  Hierapolis,  "and  there  was  the 
name  of  the  Lord  glorified."  He  then  pro- 
ceeded by  God's  will  to  a  city  named  Apicro- 
<t)opoG  "  which  is  reepAKH."  '  There  an  old 
man,  whom  he  finds  seated  and  surrounded  by 
a  crowd,  asks  his  blessing  and  says,  "  'Thou 
it  is  hast  given  this  great  ev^apicrTia  to  this

1  If  this  itinerary  is  to  be  considered  seriously,  we  must 
decide  which  Hierapolis  is  intended.  That  in  Phrygia 
seems,  in  the  route  Cyzicus — Tripolis,  more  likely  than 
that  in  Syria.  Of  the  next  town  the  termination  may 
represent  an  original  -n-oXtt.  From  the  note  on  no.  308 
above  there  might  be  reason  to  seek  it  in  Cilicia.  Atrdhi 
is  the  name  of  Chrysoetom's  first  place  of  exile  in  Synax., 
17th  Ilathor  and  12th  Pashons.  There  his  conversion 
and  healing  of  many  of  the  pagans  (Or.  2328,  129a) 
recall  incidents  in  George's  Life  (fd.  Savile,  viii.  235) 
relating  to  Cucussus.  Hut  if  Hierapolis  here  =  MabOg, 
one  might  recall  the  form  Aristosa  (Itin.  Anton.  Plaeent., 
ed.  Geyer,  190)  which  presumably  =  Arethusa. 

It  may  bo  note<I  that  Egyi)tian  exiles  were  sent,  about 
600,  to  'the  isle  of  Atroku '  (Job.  Nikiu  298),  others  to 
'an  isle  of  Galatia'  {ib.  291).  These  may  refer  to  the 
place  here  in  question. 

The  fragt.  of  Eustathius'  Encomium,  Berlin  or.  1611, 
f.  1  (=Budge  125),  calls  Anthimus  bishop  of  the  iiiicou 
simply.  In  a  fragt.  apparently  on  Chrysostom's  exile 
(Paris  1321,  14)  'the  presbyter  Anthimus'  is  one  of  his 
companions.     This  may  refer  to  the  same  legend.

said,  "  This  thing  they  did  not  from  compas-

Who  can  recount  the  sufferings  of  the 
martyrs,  who  can  praise  {iiratpelv)  the  life  of 
monks,  the  angels  upon  earth  among  men  and 
by  their  prayers  constant  advocates  (jt/jcct-

a  type  of  tliese(?).  But  I  see  that  my  words

to  return  to  this  boundless  sea,  the  grace 
(xdpia-fia)  vouchsafed  to  the  prophet  Apa  S., 
who  lived  in  that  philosophy  which  is  the 
monastic  life.     From  here  the  text  is

From  the  Martyrdom  of  a  military  saint. 
He  asks  the  rj-yefjicov,  "  Knowest  thou  not  that

can    bear    many   trials    (/Sacrai'os)  ? "       The

two  columns  of  20  or  21  lines  each,  is  written

[Rev.  C.  Mubch.] 


From  the  Acts  or  Eucomium  of  a  saint. 
"The  hol3'[au]XT/T77s  John,"ch.xxi.25,is  qxioted 
to  indicate  the  quantity  that  had  been  written 
of  the  saint.  "  But  one  of  the  Si7jyij/xa(Ta) 
that  we  have  heard  from  them  of  old  (dpj^alo?) 
is  this."  When  a  fatal  plague  had  long 
raged  in  Alexandria,  the  citizens  were  told 
that  the  saint  could  heal  them.  So  they  sent 
to  him  in  Judaea  saying, '  Come  auot  uApou 
to  our  city  and  heal  us.'

tav.  2). 

[Rev.  C.  Murch.] 

Apparently  from  a  narrative,  since  it 
shows  the  words  "And  I  said  also  to  him, 
.  .  .  ."     The  speaker  quotes  Lu.  xv.  7.

Hyvemat,  pi.  ix.  2  (col.  2),  that  on  fol.  b  is 

more  like  i6.  pi.  x.     Fol.  a  was  more  recently 

covered  with  Arabic  accounts  and  its  text  is 

often  illegible. 

[W.  J.  MVERS.] 


Fol.  a.  Part  of  a  Prayer  of  exorcism,  to 
be  said,  it  seems,  over  water  oil  and  honey.' 
It  contains  magical  words  (each  overlined  in

1008. 

Or.  5987.  — Papyrus;  77fx5f  in.  The 
text  is  written  at  right-angles  to  the  fibres, 
in  a  clear  hand,  somewhat  resembling  in 
type  those  of  Kenyon,  Gatal.  ofGr.  Papyri  u,

is  to  afford  protection  apparently  against  all 
evil  spirits  (16,  59)  and  generally  to  compel 
the  fulfilment  of  all  its  owner's  desires  (95, 
128,  133).  The  directions  for  application 
(134 — 144)  are  particularly  illegible.  LI.  145 
— 148  perhaps  prescribe  the  number  of  time* 
the  formulae  are  to  be  repeated.  The  final 
lines,  below  the  drawing,  appear  to  promise 
results  if  the  charm  be  tied  on  the  right  arm. 
Certain  features  of  the  language  might 
indicate  an  archaic  idiom,  though  some  of 
these  often  characterise  7th  and  8th  cent, 
documents  from  Hermopolis  (Ashmunain).  ^ 
Grammatical  peculiarities  throughout  the 
text  add  to  its  obscurity.

Or.  6046. — Papyrus  ;  27  consecutive  foil. 
and  a  small,  unplaced  f ragt. ;  llfxl0(or 
the  single  fol.,  5)  in.  Most  foil,  were  double, 
but  several  are  single,  with  an  extra  exten- 
sion of  about  1^  in.  on  the  inner  edge  to 
allow  of  a  fold  and  so  of  their  being  pierced 
by  the  two  small  leathern  tliongs,  which, 
penetrating  the  whole  mass  at  top  and 
bottom,  held  it  together.  Each  fol.  is  paged 
on  recto  and  verso,  the  numeral  being  pre- 
ceded by  o-eX/  (o-eXi's).*  Foil.  1 — 20a  are 
pp.  /8 — ft  (which  was  the  last  so  paged,  as 
shown  by  the  list  on  fol.  23a).  Foil.  24— 
27  are  written  in  the  reverse  direction  and 
24 — 26  are  paged  [a] — t,  fol.  26  being  a. 
Fol.  27  is  apparently  unpaged.  Written 
parallel  with  the  fibres,  by  two  scribes:  by 
the  1st,  foil.  1—106  (middle),  12a  (mid.)— 
22a,  24— 26a  (partly),  266,  27  ;  by  the  2nd, 
foil.  106  (raid.)— 12a  (mid.),  226,  23  (part), 

26a  (part). 

[Rev.  C.  Mdrch.] 

An  account-book.  The  text  is  Greek, 
except  for  a  number  of  curious  Egyptian 
names  and  words  in  which  Coptic  letters  are 
employed.  The  loss  of  the  first  fol.  (pp.  — ,, 
o)  probably  deprives  us  of  the  title,  but  it  is

'  This  paging,   as  the  positions  of  the  figures  and 
difference  in  ink  show,  was  added  after  the  text.

evident  that  the  book  is  a  record  of  a  fieptcr- 
IJ.6<;  or  assessment  of  corn  for  the  village  of 
Temseuskor — (?)  and  the  tottos  (or  TowapxCa) 
of  Demeos  {or  -on),  presumably  in  the  neigh- 
bourhood of  Antinoe  {v.  pp.  Bb,  27b).  Each 
page  shows  a  column  of  30 — 33  II.  Each 
line  consists  of  a  name  (sometimes  in  nom., 
sometimes  in  genit.),  either  alone  or  followed 
by  a  second  name  (in  gen.),  presumably  the 
father's,  or  by  another  designation  (locality, 
oflBce,  trade).  Opposite  each  are  two  figures: 
(1)  a  sum  of  money,  preceded  by  k/  (KepaTLa) 
and  ranging  from  ^  to  about  25,  or,  rarely, 
by  V  (vofiLorfJiaTa) ;  (2)  an  amount  of  corn, 
with  the  sign  \,  (1st  scribe)  or  \^  (2nd  scr.)  = 
TTvpov.  Of  these  second  figures  the  totals 
are  given  at  the  foot  of  the  column,  preceded 
by  the  compound  sign  \pi^  or  \Cj  =  nvpov 
fjLvpLdhei;}  An  approximate  proportion  is 
observed  between  the  amounts  of  money  and 
corn,  one  Kepdriov  corresponding  roughly  to 
900  artabas  and  one  solidus  (I'd/xicr/xa)  to 
17000  artabas.  E.g.,  on  fol.  lb,  k/  2,  4,  6  = 
respectively  1900,  3700,  5600  artabas  and  on 
fol.  26,  V  2,  5=  respectively  34000  and  85000 
artabas.  It  is  noticeable  that,  on  these 
figures,  a  solidus  appears  to  contain  only 
about  19,  instead  of  24,  Kcpdria.  The  relation 
between  the  amounts  of  money  and  corn 
remains  obscure ;  obviously  it  is  not  one 
of  price.^ 

Each  column  or  page  is  headed  by  a  line 
giving  a  date  &c.,  whence  it  appears  that  the 
accounts  on  foil.  1 — 20a  cover  8  months 
(Thoth  —  Pharmouthi^).      Similar  headings 

1  For  the  second  part  of  this  sign  cf.  BGU.  84 
(Kenyon). 

-  The  above  description  of  the  financial  features  of  the 
text  is  due  to  Mr.  Kenyon.

to  the  preceding,  but  that  airapyvpi  xpv(''°^PI

are  followed  by  descriptions,  e.f/.  JJavkj  p.icr6,

To  the  lists  are  appended  two  declarations: 
(1)  by  Philotheus,  son  of  Hour!  {v.  above), 
headman  of  the  village  of  Tjinela,^  who  swears 
by  God  and  '  the  health  of  'Amr  (Anbros  ")  ' 
that  he  has  not  omitted  to  account  for  (rao-- 
aetv)  any  man  of  his  village  over  14  years  of 
age;  (2)  by  Philotheus  and  Esaias,  headmen, 
and  Apater,  priest  of  the  same  village,  who 
with  the  same  oath  declare  as  before,  addinsr 
that  if  they  shall  be  found  at  fault  herein, 
they  will  place  them  (?  those  omitted)  in  their 
own  house.  From  the  Greek  words  at  the 
end  of  the  first  declaration  it  Avould  seem 
that   the  document   relates   to  the  poll-tax

respectful  terms.

The  text  is  evidently  almost  complete. 
We  may  therefore  assume  that  this  leaf  bears 
merely  a  private  letter,  though  the  use  of 
literary  uncials  and  the  arrangement  in  two 
columns  would,  I  think,  be  unique  in  such 
a  case.

From  Ashmunain.  [Rev,  C.  Murch.] 

Letter  from  Isaac  to  his  '  dear  brother,' 
Dioscorus.  He  announces  that  the  olives 
have  arrived  and  amount  to  25  Kvihia}  If 
D.  has  money  ready,  he  may  fetch  them ; 
if  not,  I  can  send  him  them.  '  You  have  10 
pairs  (of  garments)  and  a  Babylonian  skin.'^ 
He  is  to  ascertain  how  much  Germanus  paid 
for  the  wool  and  inform  him  that  both 
(accounts)  may  be  settled  together,  sup- 
posing he,  D.,  has  sold  nothing.  'I  have 
been  at  the  pains  to  write  to  you,  but  you 
have  not  sent  a  single  letter,  that  I  might 
know  about  G.'s  money  for  the  wool.  My 
father  and  Mouei  greet  you.  I  was  going  to 
send  you  some  reeds,  when  I  heard  that  you 
would  come  after  Easter  was  over.    Farewell.'

God  convince  your  filial  lordship  that,  except- 
ing the  concern  for  your  body,  we  have  now 
no  other  care  more  pleasant'  than  to  see  yoa 
almost  daily  and  to  know  of  your  good  health. 
For  besides  the  care  of  our  sins  and  the 
establishment  in  health  of  your  body,  we 
have  no  object  (/if.  remembrance)  at  all  for 
which  to  pray.  Now,  though  our  difficulties 
and  the  cares  which  at  present  occupy  (Zif. 
are  spread  upon)  us,  are  very  great,  we  have 
cast  all  behind  us  because  of  your  great 
suffering,  that  is  a  burden  upon  us,  even  as 
if  our  eye  were  diseased.  Inform  us  then,  in 
your  honoured  letters,  whether  you  are  better 
or  how  you  fare.  For  our  heart  is  daily 
disturbed  on  your  account.  Believe*  my 
humility  and  your  humble  adorers  (that)  all 
the  brethren  do  daily  pray  for  your  health. 
And  as  to  the  only  matter  about  which  we 
sent,  (it  is)  that  you  should  tell  us  how  you 
do,  and,  if  God  has  given  grace  that  you 
should  be  able  to  rise,  we  desire  to  see  you, 
that  our  grief  may  be  changed  to  joy.*  For 
the  Word  that  was  made  flesh  and  bade  the 
paralytic  (saying,)  Take  up  thy  bed  and 
walk,*  He  shall  heal  your  body,  that  you 
may  go  on  from  strength  to  strength  ^ ;  and

Letter  from  Theodore  and  Tsourfis  *  to 
their  '  dear  son,'  Tsourfes  being  his  mother- 
in-law.  They  upbraid  him  with  neglect  and 
cruelty  toward  his  wife.  The  idiom  is  so 
unusually  difficult,  that  little  can  be  said  as 
to  details.     Babylon  is  mentioned.

Letter  from  Apa  Papseouei,^  to  Apa  John 
(or  Joseph),  both  anchorites.  The  subject 
is  obscure,  owing  to  lacunae  ;  but  the  dialect 
is  interesting.  Besides  the  forms  iiact,  gpacj, 
also    uH(j,  it  shows  atot-  for  at-,   on   for 

OTOIJ,   GpjMA-  for  Gp^AU-,   6CG-  for  NG6-,   CTI   OG

Letter  from  Papnoute,  a  deacon,  to  Apa 
Shenoute,  his  '  patron  (irpooraTT/s)  and  lord 
brother.'  If  S.  has  any  more  aray/ia,*  P. 
will  fetch  them.  He  will  not  leave  till  the 
vintage  is  ended.  He  offers  to  deal  with  a 
third  person  (unnamed)  according  to  S.'s 
wishes.  He  asks  S.  to  come  down  to  him, 
that  they  may  go  north  together.  He  refers 
to  the  Srjiioaiov  which  he  had  demanded 
of  the  man  sent  to  him  and  ends  with 
professions  of  gratitude  for  S.'s  goodness  to 
him  and  of  his  readiness  to  fulfil  all  his 
behests.

Letter  from to ,  wherein  '  my  dear 

daughter  the  lady  Staurou,'  and  '  my  little 
daughter '  the  lady  Eomanna  are  saluted. 
The  writer  will  not  write  much,  as  he  is  send- 
ing Apa  M^na  to  speak  personally ;  moreover 
he  will  himself  go  north,  the  next  or  follow- 
ing day,  and  visit  them.  Still,  they  are  not 
to  hesitate  to  give  an  answer  to  M^na.  He 
trusts  they  will  be  satisfied ;  he  had  ventured 
to  send  since  the  matter  was  one  of  much 
importance.  He  begs  the  recipient  to  let 
him  know  the  condition  of  his  feet.

Or.  5078(2).  —  Papyrus,  broken  through 
below ;  6|-  X  5|^  in.  The  text,  at  right-angles 
to  the  fibres,  is  in  a  clumsy,  almost  ligature- 
less  hand  of  a  relatively  early  type  (c/.  Rainer 
Filhrer  1894,  Taf.  vii).  The  date  upon  the 
verso  cannot  be  that  of  the  letter  itself  and  is 
doubtless  by  a  later  hand. 

From  Siut.  [Col.  T.  L.  Fraser.] 

Letter  from '  the  humble  '  priest,  Dioscorus, 
to  his  pious  {9eoa-e^7]<;)  father,  Apa  Hamoi,^ 
•  who  is  truly  worthy  of  the  name  of  priest.' 
He  greets  his  sister  (?  sisters)  and  all  the 
brethren.     The  text  is  incomplete. 

The  date  (  =  A.D.  959)  is  doubtful  only  as 
regards  the  Indiction.

Or.  4721(25). — Papyrus;  a  fragt.,  paged 
KG,  K?  ;  4Jx3|^  in.  The  text  is  upon  both 
sides  in  a  thick  hand  of  Zoega's  3rd  class. 

[Graf.] 

From  a  Syllabary.^  On  p.  kg  are  syllables 
beginning  with  *l-  and  ending  with  g,  t, 
[lacuna],  +  and  ^y  respectively ;  on  p.  k^^  are 
those  beginning  with  ^  and  ending  with  i,  k, 
[lacuna],  5.,  n,  [lacttna],  'c  respectively.  Each 
o-roup  is  provided  with  the  7  vowels  in  turn, 

thus  :      :'JAK,    '"IGK,    ^HK,    ^IK,    J^IOK,   ^TK,  ^lOJK.

with  u)  was  given.

Or.  5297(7).— Papyrus  ;  four  fragts.,  the 
largest  3jx2  in.  The  text  is  upon  both 
sides.  Their  value  lies  in  the  unique  coloured 
ornamentation  of  the  enlarged  initials  and 
accompanying  scrolls.  The  script  resembles 
that  common  in  parchment  MSS.  of  the  9th 
to  11th  centuries,  more  particularly  the  type 
Ciasca,  tab.  xii ;     while   the   decoration   is

Sa'idic  dialect,  remains  to  allow  of  descrip- 
tion. It  is  included  here  on  account  of  the 
script,*  which  is  of  interest  as  being  closely 
similar  to  a  type  very  common  in  parchment 
MSS.  {e.fj.  Ciasca,  Tab.  i).

fibres,  is  written  in  an  uneven  hand  with  rare 
ligatures  and  probably  of  some  antiquity. 

[Rev.  C.  Mdech.] 

A  charm,  wherein  God,  the  Archangels, 
Cherubim,  Trinity  &c.  are  invoked  to  destroy 
"all  who  oppose"  the  writer  (or  owner), 
especially  Victor,  Hatre,  Papnoute  and  David 
his  son.  It  begins  with  a  curse  on  any  un- 
authorized opener  of  the  roll :  "  God  of 
heaven  and  earth  !  Whoso  shall  apen  this 
papyrus  (xaprrjs)  and  read  what  is  written 
therein  (?),  may  all  that  is  written  therein 
come  upon  him,  0  God  of  heaven  and  earth  !  " 
The  dialect  is  a  specimen  of  a  sa'idicized 
Ahmimic,  wherein  the  peculiar  h  is  replaced 
by  the  ordinary  z}

Or.  4719(3).  —  Papyrus  ;  a  dilapidated 
fragt.;  8x4^  in.  The  teit,  almost  wholly 
upon  one  side,  ia  in  one(?)  column,  in  a 
re^lar  hand  of  Zoega's  2nd  class.  Parts  of 
25  lines  are  visible. 

[Graf.] 

Upon  the  other  side  are  the  remains  of  a 
remarkable   painting.      What    is    preserved 
represents  the  pointed  ears,  head,  neck  and 
forelegs  of  a  fox  or  jackal,  running  from  left 
to  right,  with  open  mouth.     Below  his  out- 
stretched   bead   a   bird,   something    like    a 
dove,  flies  in  the  same  direction.     Below  his 
feet  are   the   hindlegs  and    tail  of  another, 
apparently  simiUr  animal,  likewise  running, 
but  drawn  in  the  reversed  position  to  that 
above  {i.e.  upside-down).     A   bird   like   the 
other  is  flying  apparently  from  below   this 
animal's  tail.*      The   two   animals   are  out- 
lined in  black  and  coloured  saffron  yellow 
with  shadings  indicated  in   darker  yellow ; 
the  birds  are  outlined  similarly  and  coloured 
a  greyish  green,  but  with  breast,  neck  and 
the  lower  side  of   the  wings    white.     Both 
drawing  and  colouring  are  in  a  style  much 
freer  and  less  conventional  than  that  usual 
in    the    marginal   ornamentation   of   Coptic 
parchment  MS8. 

Of  the  text,  in  the  Mid.  Egyptian  dialect, 
a  few  letters  only  are  visible.

cross  above  it.  L.  2,  containing  the  date, 
A.M.  401  =  A. D.  745,  gives  the  fragment  its 
importance  ;  while  3  and  4  show  formulae 
but  give  no  clue  to  the  purport  of  the  text. 
Lines  5 — 14  consist  in  witnesses'  signatures.

the  canonical  hours'  of  the  night  of  {i.e.  pre- 
ceding) each  day  and  then  for  those  of  the 
day  itself.  Those  for  Monday  night  begin 
on  fol.  24,  those  for  Tuesday  night  on  49b, 
for  Wednesday  on  9\b,  for  Thursday  on  I26/<,

and  for  the  morning  on  302.  The  lessons 
for  Monday  morning  are  headed  "  The  Canon

hour  of  Tuesday  follows  the  liturgy  of  the

Arabic  differs  considerably  from  the  Coptic. 
They  relate  chiefly  to  the  lessons,  and  not 
the  ritual.  The  lessons  themselves  appear  to 
correspond  generally  to  those  on  p.  49  ff.  of
