page 290 note 1 In the same year a copy of the Iliad, Odyssey, and Batrachomyomachia, now Laur. 32, 6, was written at Bologna by Rhosus. I have not been able to identify

page 290 note 3 MSS. Vat. 32 and 33 contain scholia minora to the Iliad; the latter is alluded to by Ludwich, Aristarchs hom. Textkritik ii. 512 note, and Maass, Scholia Townleyana vol. 2 p. It may be well to give some additional particulars of the former, which seems to have escaped notice. Vat. 32, membr. 11½ × 9½, ff. 139, signed quaternions, has the last leaf (f. 139) restored by a later hand upon a piece of palimpsest; after six lines necessary to complete the text come the following in the same hand: . And beneath, The book therefore with the exception of the last page was written by Prophemus in Arcadia in 1097, and this agrees well with the style of writing. Vat. 33 is similar, but may be somewhat earlier in point of time; it is in excellent preservation. A more or less contemporary copy is a MS. at Grotta Ferrata, Z. a. xxv, but mutilated and containing scholia alone to A and B; they begin at the words . The view taken by Peipers (ap. Ludwich, Rhein. Mus. xxxii. p. 187) of the age of this MS. is far too modest.

page 293 note 2 In the number of this Review for October 1889 I gave some particulars of the MS. 6 in this library, which contains scholia minora to the Iliad. I was then unaware that the manuscript had been studied in detail by Prof. Sittl, Sitzungsberichte der philosoph.-philolog. u. historisch. Classe der K. b. Akad. d. Wiss. zu München, 1888 Bd. II. Heftii. pp. 255 sqq. Herr Sittl has shown without a doubt the importance of the MS. and its position in the tradition of the text of Homer, as Prof. Ludwich has recognised (Berliner philologische Wochenschrift, February 16, 1889); but he appears to me to be in error in two points. Firstly, in so decidedly assigning the MS. to the ninth century: it is however at latest of the early part of the tenth; further, p. 257, 8 Sittl explains a double quire-signature that runs through the MS. (e.g. ) as if the eutira book originally consisted of several volumes, and meant the tenth quire of the first volume. But, as a matter of fact, these quire-signatures are in a quite late hand, and mean nothing more than that when, at some late period, the book was trimmed and rebound, the trimmer, with unusual care, noted the ‘correspondence’ of his own signatures, which are the ordinary numerals, with the old ones that had been shorn away, and which were the letters of the alphabet in their natural order. The book may have originally been bound in several volumes, but there is nothing to prove, or even to suggest, that it was so. Moreover MSS. consisting of two or more volumes are more often than not signed continuously.
