Notes

Psellus, Michael. De omnifaria doctrina. [PHI.167].

At the end of ms. (post fol. 160): 1 printed leaf, an index in Modern Greek with empty spaces left for initials. Inc. mut. διαθήκην, καὶ πόσοι μάρτυρες νὰ εἶναι. Καὶ περὶ ἀδελφῶν ἐὰν ἔχουν τὰ πράγματα αὐτῶν. Des. mut. [Π]ερὶ καταλαλιᾶς, καὶ μνησικακίας. Καὶ παρὰκροαστοῦ (sic) καὶ προδότου.

After that, another older folio from 10th-11th century (?) written in two columns, containing a treatise on virtue. Inc. mut. ...μνουσιν. οἱ δὲ τὸ ἐπιτυχὸν ἁρπάσαντες τῶν σαρκῶν, ἀποκόπτουσιν. Des. mut. ἡ τοῦ διαλάμποντος μᾶλλον ὑπεροχὴ πρὸς βασκανίαν ἠρέθισεν.

The three last folios also include exercises in writing official letters to abbots (several variations of the type Τῷ πανασίῳτάτῳ ἄγιω καθηγούμενώ τῆς Ἰερᾶς καὶ βασίλικοῖς μον [sic]).

(Not listed in Pinakes).
