Extract

The manuscripts of which this Paper contains an account have an interesting history. Their publication was intended sixty years ago. Unfortunately, this was never carried out, the manuscripts finding their way instead, in 1870, to the British Museum, where, under the title of the ‘Egerton MS. 2124,’ they have lain ever since more or less undisturbed.
