Notes
Vaticanus palatinus græcus 364. 14th century (fols. 1-36) & 15th century (fols. 37-354 [end]). Paper. Mostly a religious and poetical/grammatical miscellany. "Sum de Bibliotheca, quam Heidelberga capta Spolium fecit..." &c. &c. Once belonged to "Pope Nathaniel". For details of provenance and contents, see Stevenson in Bibliography and Online Resources.
Water-damaged at top of pages through 36v. Obscurities in the gutters of about 22v/23r to 36v/37r appear to belong to the ms. and not to our film (WEST.VAT.1.69) and end abruptly with 37r, a new work and apparently a new quire.
Fol. 1a Interesting itemized list, unmentioned in Stevenson, of presumably monastic expenses, with prices in ducates. Items include σεντόνια, προσόψι, στρώματα, παπλώματα μεταξένια, μαξιλάρια, σπερβέρια (bed-curtains), &c.
Fol. 1b "Pselli exegesis in Cantica [sic] Canticorum" & alia.
Fols. 59-60, 79, 84, 290-292, 315, 332 and 337sq. all missing from our microfilm (and from the codex?). These all come after the end of works (except poss. 315 & 332sq), and so may be blank ones that were not thought worth photographing.
204v Silentia aurea: Ornamental heading and title «Διήγησις πάνυ ὁφέλημως [οὕτω] Μακαρίου μοναχοῦ τοῦ Αἱγυπτίου [οὕτω]· εὐλογία περὶ:- » Then an ornamental Π and everything blank till the next work, on 207r.
267v-286r Psellus on the שִׁיר הַשִּׁירִים Ἑρμηνεία τοῦ ᾄσματος τῶν ᾀσμάτων διὰ στίχων πολιτικῶν (TLG 2702.015, no. 2; Iter Psellianum no. 1045 (POE.2)).
313 "Lexicon dictionum Homericarum."
339r/v Eight parts of speech: Τὰ τοῦ Ηʹ σημαντικά.
346 "Versus iambici unde originem traxerint."
