          Much of trouble, little of profit,

  Ἔγραψα καὶ ἐξεθέμην κατὰ δύναμιν στειχηρὸν τόδε τὸ τεῦχος Παύλου τοῦ
  ἀποστόλου πρὸς ἐγγραμμὸν καὶ εὐκατάλημπτον ἀνάγνωσιν ... ἀντεβλήθη δὲ
  ἡ βίβλος πρὸς τὸ ἐν Καισαρίᾳ ἀντίγραφον τῆς βιβλιοθήκης τοῦ ἁγίου
  Παμφίλου χειρὶ γεγραμμένον αὐτοῦ.

  Papyri_, p. 2 f.

Footnote 76:

  Facsimiles of 13, 69, 124, 346 are given in Abbott’s _Collation of

  Plate XIII, 40.

Footnote 77:

  See Blass’s _Praefatio_ to his edition of Luke, pp. lxix f. (1897),

  On Luke viii. 15 Tischendorf observes that in 49^{evl} (a Lectionary
  of the tenth or eleventh century, now in Moscow, presented to the
  Monastery of the Mother of God τοῦ βροντοχίου by Nicephorus,
  Metropolitan of Crete, and Antistes of Lacedæmon, in 1312) the lection
  εἰς τὰς ἔξω ἐκκλησίας ended with this verse (15) and the words
  attached to it, “And so saying He cried, He that hath ears to hear,
  let him hear,” and that the additional verses were not read εἰς τὴν
  μεγάλην ἐκκλησίαν, but vv. 20, 21-25 followed immediately after the
  words ἐν ὑπομονῇ (v. 15).

Footnote 80:

  On the “Livre d’Évangiles réputé avoir appartenu à S. Jean
  Chrysostome,” _cf._ Ch. Graux, in the _Revue de Philologie_, Avril
  1887.
