Additions

N.B., items below may have been listed out of folio order in Wright's catalogue.
Addition 1 (Fol. 172a): The colophon, fol. 172 a, states that this manuscript was written at Mosul, in the convent of Hormisdas or Hormuzd, by one 'Ebed-yeshūa', for the priest Mārī. Owing to a rent in the leaf, the date has been rendered in part illegible, but the words ܐܬܟܬ[ܒ]. . . ܬܠܬܡܐ[ܐ] . . . ܘܚܡܫ are still quite clear. The date must therefore lie between A. Gr. 1325—95, A.D. 1014—84. From some faint traces of letters it appears to be most probably A. Gr. 1385, A. D. 1074. ܐܬܟܬܒ ܕܝܢ ܒܥܘܡܪܗ ܕܢܨܝܚܐ ܘܛܒܝܒ ܒܥܢܘ̈ܝܐ ܘܪܝܫܐ ܕܝܚܝ̈ܕܝܐ ܪܒܢ ܗܘܿܪܡܸܙܕ ܢܝܢܘܝܐ ܏ܘܫ. ܟܬܒܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܘܝܐ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܘܚܠܫ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܏ܘܫ ܥܒܕܝܫܘܥ ܕܘܝܐ ܕܡܢ ܡܘܨܠ ܡܕܝܢܬ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܝ̣ܕܝ̣ܥ ܕܒܒܝ. ܡܢ ܒܢ̈ܘܗܝ ܕܗܢܐ ܛܘܒܬܢܐ ܘܐܒܐ ܡܒܪܟܐ ܪܒܢ ܗܘܿܪܡܸܙܕ ܨܠܘ̈ܬܗ ܥܠ ܟܠܢ ܐܡܝܢ. ܐܝܟ ܕܠܡܪܡܪܝ ܩܫܝܫܐ ܘܐ܏ܣܟܘ (i.e. ܘܐܣܟܘܠܝܐ) ܐܚܘܗܝ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܪܚ̇ܡܗ ܒܫܪܪܐ. ܘܚܒܝܒܗ ܕܝܠܢܝܐ. ܏ܘܫ. ܐܬܟܬ[ܒ]. . . ܬܠܬܡܐ[ܐ]. . . ܘܚܡܫ . . . ܐ ܫܒܘܿ . . . ܘܐܒ̈ܗ . . . ܐ ܠܟܠ ܡ̇ܢ ܕܥܬܝܕ . . . ܒܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܢܹܩܪܸܐ ܐܘ ܕܢܲܨܲܚ ܏ܘܫ. ܐܝܟ ܐܠܦܐ ܠܠܡܐܢܐ ܡܢ ܡܟܫ̈ܘܠܐ̣ ܗܟܢܐ ܣܘܪܓܕܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ ܠܟܬܘܒܐ.
Addition 2 (Fol. 1a): On fol. 1 a there is a note, dated A. Gr. 1739, A. D. 1428. It is much effaced, which is to be regretted, as it seems to contain some historical particulars. ܒܐܝܪܚ ܐܝܪ ܕܫܢܬܐܥܠܛ
