Excerpt from The Apparatus Criticus of the Culex
To Mr Ellis the Vaticanus is merely one of his sixteen mss. In his apparatus criticus he leaves many of its chief readings unrecorded; in the table prefixed he excludes it, as he also excludes the Corsinianus, from his list of the five best codices (four of which are negligible); and in a preface of ten pages he finds no occasion even to mention it. So far is he from perceiving its relationship to the Vossianus that in places where the two mss give the same lection he often quotes them as separate authorities and often quotes Voss. Without quoting Vat.; While at u. 214 he prints em in his text because Voss. Has et, though Vat. Like all other mss has e. Yet the relationship is so manifest that in proceeding to demonstrate it-one is even embarrassed by the wealth of proof.
