Excerpt from Testamenta XII Patriarcharum: Appendix Containing a Collation of the Roman and Patmos Mss. And Bibliographical Notes
On my becoming aware of these further authorities for the text, I endeavoured at once to obtain collations of them. After experiencing several failures in the case of the Roman ms, I was at last successful through the kindness of Dr. Ignazio Guidi, to whom I return my most sincere thanks. The collation which follows is a copy of that sent to me by him, save that I have occasionally omitted variations such as itacisms or the like, in cases where the sense of the passage is not at all affected. When this ms, or the following, agrees with the Oxford against the Cambridge ms., I have for the sake of brevity noted the variation simply as O.
In the case of the Patmos ms, I was most courteously furnished with a complete transcript. For this my thanks were especially due to the Rev. George Williams, b.d., late Fellow of King's College, and to the Metropolitan of Chios, who kindly troubled themselves in the matter.
