trateour extracts . We trust that we need not apologize to our readers , for the length to which this plan may carry us . Beside new collations of MSS . numbered before , we have fiftythree copies added to the list in the Acts and Catholic Epistles ; thirty-two in the Epistles of Paul ; and twelve in the Apocalypse . The most important MS . now added * , is the Codex Vaticanus 1209 ( now at Paris ) or B . It is the most ancient of all our MSS . excepting perhaps the codex Df 7 and exhibits a purer text than any of themj . The collation of the Sahidic version is now first
produced ; and numerous extracts from the Slavonic , with an ample critical description of its MSS . and some readings from the Bohemian , as well as a very accurate collation of the Armenian , have been furnished by the author ' s friends , whose names he records in his preface . He excuses himself in not having given readings from Professor White ' edition of the Philoxenian Syriac , from , the necessity of proceeding in his work while his strength lasted , without the delay of collecting them , and ¦ waiting till they should be complete .

The Barberini readings were excluded entirely from Wetstein , and Oriesbach's first edition , but are restored in the second . See Wetstein ' s Pi ' oleg- v . i . p . 61 . wherever this circumstance would have produced a double citation of the same authority , it is noted by Griesbach in the Appendix to the Acts . f Michaelis- v . ii . p . a 2 & 3 &c .

: The Acts being printed off , before Birch ' s collation came to hand , his readings are given separately , \ vith some others at the end of the volume . When we consider that the codex . Bis one of these , and that towards the end of the Acts several of the uncial MSS . have lacunae , we shall see that it is necessary to re-examine the evidence before we quote Gxiesbach ' s text , in this book , in favour of a reading .
