Additions

N.B., items below may have been listed out of folio order in Wright's catalogue.
: After the doxology, we read the name of the scribe, Theoctistus: ܘܟܠ ܕܩ̇ܪܐ ܢܨܠܐ ܥܠ ܒܨܝܪܐ ܘܚܛܝܐ ܣܢܝܩ ܥܠ ܪܚ̈ܡܐ ܬܐܩܛܣܛܐ ܕܣܪܛ. ܕܢܬܚܢܢ ܒܝܘܡ ܕܝܢܐ ܐܡܝܢ ܘܐܡܝܢ.
Addition 1 (Fol. 54a): On the margin of fol. 54 a, in reference to the words of Chrysostom, ܫܘܕ̈ܠܝܗ̇ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܡܝ̣ ܟ̇ܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܝ, we read the note: I,Cyril the stranger, have written: his mother's name was Anthusa" (' Ανθουσα ). ܩܘ[ܪܝܠܘܣ] ܐܟܣܢܝܐ ܟܬܒܬ ܠܐܡܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܐܢܬܘܣܐ ܫܡܗ̇
Addition 2 (Fol. 146a): That the name of the annotator was really Cyril, appears from another note on fol. 146 a: "Cyril has written: this is by Evagrius" (which is, however, a mistake). ܩܘܪܝܠܘܣ ܟܬ݂ܒ ܕܐܘܓܪܝܘܣ ܐܝܬܝܗ̇ ܗܕܐ
Addition 3 (Fol. 1a): The later writing on fol. 1 a is too much defaced and mutilated to be intelligible.
