_h._ COD. CLAROMONTANUS [iv or v], now in the Vatican Library
(Lat. 7223), for which it was bought by Pius VI (1775-99),
contains, like _g_1, St. Matthew only in the Old Latin, the other
Gospels being Vulgate. _Mut._ Matt. i. 1-iii. 15; xiv. 33-xviii.
12. Sabatier gave extracts, and Mai published St. Matthew in full
in his “Script. Vet. nova collectio Vaticana,” iii. p. 257 (Rom.
1828); it has been republished by Belsheim (Evangelium secundum
Matthaeum ... e codice olim Claromontano nunc Vaticano),
Christiania, 1892.
_i._ COD. VINDOBONENSIS [vii], at Vienna (Lat. 1235), formerly
belonging to an Augustinian Monastery at Naples, whence it was
brought with ninety-four other MSS. to Vienna in 1717; consists of
142 leaves, and contains Luke x. 6-xxiii. 10; Mark ii. 17-iii. 29;
iv. 4-x. 1; 33-xiv. 36; xv. 33-40. The MS. was described and
edited by F. C. Alter, the Mark fragments in G. E. H. Paulus’ “N.
Repert. d. bibl. u. morgenl. Literatur,” iii. pp. 115-170 (1791),
the Luke fragments in Paulus, Memorabilia, vii. pp. 58-95 (1795).
Bianchini had, however, previously obtained a collation for his
“Evangeliarium Quadruplex” from the Count of Thun and Hohenstein
(afterwards Bishop of Gurk in Carinthia), who had spent some time
at the Court of Vienna; and N. Forlosia, the principal Librarian
at Vienna, had given him a careful description of the MS.; _see_
“Epistola Blanchinii ad Episcopum Gurcensem” in Bianchini’s
prolegomena. Finally Belsheim edited the MS. completely in 1885
(Leipzig, Weigel), and Dr. Rudolf Beer revised his edition for
Bishop Wordsworth’s edition of the Vulgate in 1888.
_j._ COD. SARZANNENSIS or SARETIANUS [v] was discovered in 1872 in
the Church of Sarezzano near Tortona. It consists of eight quires
written on purple vellum in silver letters, and contains (much
mutilated) 292 verses of St. John, viz. i. 38-iii. 23; iii. 33-v.
20; vi. 29-49; 49-67; 68-vii. 32; viii. 6-ix. 21, written two
columns on a page. The text is peculiar, and much with _a_ _b_ _d_
_e_. Guerrino Amelli, sub-librarian of the Ambrosian Library (and
now at the Benedictine Monastery of Monte Cassino), published at
Milan the same year a “Dissertazione critico-storica,” 18 pp. (2nd
edition, 1885), with a lithographed facsimile, whose characters
much resemble the round and flowing shape of those in _a_ _b_ _f_.
The MS. is now at Rome undergoing careful restoration, but no part
of it has yet been published.
