36 CATALOGUE OF MANUSCRIPTS. [18—
18. Iustini Historiae etc. Haenel 2. Kk. 4. 5
Vellum, 14 x qf, ff. 62, double columns of 43 lines. Cent, xii,
early: in the hands used at that time at Christ Church, Canter-
bury. Initials in purple, green and red : smaller initials in plain
red or green.
Binding: bevelled wooden boards covered in white-skin.
Given by John Heaver, who has written in the cover:
Justinus imperfectus.
Orosius imperfectus.
I have little doubt that the book is from Christ Church, Canter-
bury, or Rochester: in any case written at Christ Church.
Collation: 4 flyleaves cut out | i8 (wants 1 and 8) ii8-v8 (vi, vii
gone) viii8 (several quires gone) ix8 (x gone) xi8 xii3 (2 canc.) | 1
flyleaf.
Contents:

Lib. 1. ends imperfectly in the last chapter but two:

One leaf containing the end of I. and the beginning of II.

Lib. in..13

Lib. VII. begins in c. 15 (of Antoninus Pius) ... 38
Bellum deinde contra Parthos.
And ends in c. 39 :
que inflammari ab hostibus nequiuerunt.
Just before this a leaf was evidently wanting in the archetype
after the last words of c. 37. The reading is

barbari. 39. 14, 15.
The gap is at the asterisk.
