*12. Copt. 65, fol., paper. “Emta Venetiis per me Fr. I. Bernardum
de Montfaucon anno 1698, 2 Augusti.” This volume contains the
Apocalypse, Catholic Epistles, and Acts. It consists of two parts,
ff. 1-32 containing the Apocalypse, and ff. 33-102 containing the
Catholic Epistles and Acts. The two parts are written on different
paper, and apparently in different hands. At the end of the
Apocalypse the date is given 1376 = A.D. 1660. At the end of the
Acts also the same date 1376 is given, and the scribe there
mentions his name ⲓⲱⲁⲡⲓⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ. Boetticher collated this MS.
for his edition and designates it _m_.
In the Royal Library at Berlin:
13. Orient. 615, fol., Copt. Arab., containing the Epistles to the
Colossians, Thessalonians, Philemon, Hebrews, Timothy, Titus.
14. Orient. 116, fol., Copt. Arab., containing the Epistles to the
Romans and Corinthians.
15. Orient. 169, 4to. A transcript of the Epistles to the
Ephesians and Philippians in Coptic, made by Petraeus at Leyden in
1660.
These three were collated by Boetticher, from whom I have
extracted this meagre account, which is all that he gives. He
designates them _b_.
In the Vatican:
16. Copt. 12 (I. B. Raymund ii), fol., paper, Copt. Arab. The
Pauline Epistles, Catholic Epistles, and Acts; ascribed by
Assemani to the fourteenth century. In this MS. the Epistle to the
Hebrews stands after the Epistle to Philemon, thus departing from
the usual Bohairic order, as above, no. 6. _See_ Mai, Coll. Vet.
Script., v. 2, p. 125 sq.
17. Copt. 13 (I. B. Raymund iii), fol., paper, Copt. Arab.,
ascribed by Assemani to the thirteenth century. The fourteen
Pauline Epistles. _See_ Mai, _l. c._, p. 127 sq.
18. Copt. 14 (I. B. Raymund v), 4to, paper, Copt. Arab.,
containing the Pauline Epistles, Catholic Epistles, and Acts. It
was written by Michael the monk of the city of Bembge in the year
1074 (i.e. A.D. 1358), except the last leaf, which was supplied in
1220 (i.e. A.D. 1504). _See_ Mai, _l. c._, p. 128 sq.
C. _The Apocalypse._
In England:
*1. Bodleian, Hunt. 43, already described under Epistles 1.
*2. Library of Lord Crawford and Balcarres. A very small folio,
paper, with illuminations, Copt. Arab. ϯⲁⲡⲟⲕⲁⲗⲓⲙⲯⲓⲥ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲓⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ.
The Apocalypse itself is followed by “The Benediction which is
read before the Holy Apocalypse.” The date 1091 (i.e. A.D. 1375)
is given at the end of the Apocalypse, where also the scribe
mentions his name Peter. On a later page he describes himself as a
monk and presbyter. There are corrections in the margin of the
Apocalypse, some in red, others in black ink. Some of these
contain various readings, e.g. x. 11 ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ λέγουσι for ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ
λέγει. This MS. once belonged to Tattam.
