the connection. To the differences between the texts could be added
those of a trifling character, showing that it is impossible for to
have been derived from R. and R must then form a class by
themselves, to be accounted for as representing a theoretical MS.

Common readings pointing to a relationship A1.R are as follows :

AT is naturally not copied from R, the younger MS. Neither is
R a copy of Ar This truth is shown as follows :

Considerable difference between Ar and R proves that R cannot
have been derived from the older MS. Ar It is equally impossible
that transcript (5) retaining correct readings transmitted to Jf and R
alike, but not reproduced in A1, be derived from A1- cf. 11. 179,
180; 551, 552; 644—646. The list of individual mistakes in A1,
where H1 and R preserve the correct reading, is sufficiently imposing
to corroborate the conclusion that neither R nor its source was
derived from Ar Hence it must be concluded, that A1 and R,
forming with a MSS. group, go back to a source now lost, but
represented by f (fifty.
