Additions
N.B., items below may have been listed out of folio order in Wright's catalogue.
Addition 1 (Fol. 16b):
On the lower half of fol. 16 b the original text has been erased, and a later hand has written the pretended colophon:
ܫܠܡ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܡܪܝ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܐܝܚܝܕܝܐ ܕܒܗ ܡܠܠ ܘܦܫܩ ܥܠ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܘܒܪ̈ܐ ܕܐܝܚ̈ܝܕܝܐ..
Below, on the right side, stand, in the same handwriting, the words:
ܫܘܒܚܐ ܠܐܒܐ ܕܚܝܠ ܘܠܒܪܐ ܕܣܝܥ ܘܠܪܘܚܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ . . .
on the left,
ܡܢܘ ܕܦܚܡ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܒܫܡܝ ܫܡܝܐ ܘܕܕܡܐ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܒܒ̈ܢܝ ܡ̈ܠܐܟܐ.
