luuenciis, Historia Euangelica. Ms. 304 at Cor- 

 pus Christi College, Cambridge, in iincial letters probably 

 of the VII* Century, consisting of three separate preliminary 

 leaves, foUowed by 14 4-sheet quires, numbered in the centre

 probably a lö*"* quire of 2 sheets, now lost at the end of the 

 volume. The pages contain 21 lines in the 1", 13"", and M"* quires, 

 and 20 lines through the rest of the volume. The measurement 

 is 10 inches by 6^4 or 7 inches in breadth. The text is written

 each verse, and a larger and blacker letter at the beginning of 

 each verse. 



The three preliminary leaves are ornamentally written in 

 large capitals (11 lines to a page), within borders, the first 

 and last pages being enclosed in an arch, the rest within rect-

 with St. Isidore and his Library ,Sunt hie plura sacra' etc., but
