Itala Fragments in Verona. 13 



apostafa, nir inutilis, graditur ore perucrso Vg. Sabatier knew of no 

 ancient version for 4—16. Ps.-Aug. de div. scr. 88 reads: uir shiltiis 

 et iniquus uadit u. n. b. The Sept. lias here : ui'r\q acpQMv xal naqd-

 Greek or other av;thority for oculorum ; the writing is badly rubbed 

 here, but a careful study of my photograph confirms me in the 

 reading ; I believe the scribe had digitorum before him, but was 

 misled by the oculos above. Curiousl}^ enough, day.rv/Mf stands in an 

 erasure in A. 9. {peru)erso (aute)ni corde fabricat mala\ prauo corde

 text and the Vg.) 6 toiovtoc: Tuoaj^dg avviGtr^oa' ni'Kti Sept. 12—16.

 Sabatier's testimonia from the Fathers are particularly interesting; 

 Jerome in Nahum 2, quotes the first four words of our text ; Lucifer 

 of Cagliari, de S. Athan. 1, 26, agrees with our passage, except 

 for oculus contumeliosus at the beginning ; it is clear from this 

 fragment, as Hartel had already seen, that Sabatier was wrong 

 in explaining the stmt as an interpolation by the Lucifer copyist; 

 Lucifer found it in the version he used — our own. Thielmann 

 suggests that Lucifer's use of this version shows that it had of- 

 ficial currency. 20—21. {et cor fdjbricans cogitatiotics malas, (et 

 pede)s festinantes ad tnalefaciendinn ] cor ntachinans cogitationes 

 pessimas, pedes ueloces ad currertdtim in malum Vg. Lucifer (1. c.) 

 quotes our text exactly. The Sept. has : xai xaqdia T£XTaifofj.ii'ri Xoyi- 

 Gfioig xnxovg, xai nideg inianfvdoyreg xaxonoistf. 22. (accend)lt falsa testes
