NOTES AND QUERIES. 



[2°<*S. IX. June 23. 'GO. 



TECHNICAL MEMORY APPLIED TO THE BIBLE. 



A reverend gentleman, a reader of " N. & Q.," 

 Las requested me to forward to him more of those 

 verses from the mediajval MS., a specimen of 

 which appeared lately in " N. & Q." (2 nd S. ix. 

 177.) As there may possibly be other readers 



who may take the same interest in the subject, I 

 propose to use "N". & Q." as the medium of 

 transmission, if you find them admissible ; and 

 therefore send you the verses on the three other 

 Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, and the Apo- 

 calypse : ■ — 



Mattheus.
