Manuscript Contents
Note: Item numbering updated in digital edition.
Item 1 (Fol. 1a): Cyril of Alexandria. Works of Cyril of Alexandria
Note: These two quires were at one time used to make good the defect in Add. 17,149, after fol. 63
. This appears from the words ܛܘܒܘܗܝ ܠܓܒܪܐ, the one of which is written in Add. 17,149, on the lower margin of fol. 63 b
, and the other here in Add. 17,150, on the lower margin of fol. 1a
. Hence, too, the erasure of the last two lines in Add. 17,149, fol. 63 b
.
