Made up of three MSS., 9th-10th centuries
File
MS. Auct. T. 2. 18
Held at the Weston Library
Made up of three MSS.:
A. First half of 10th cent.:
- Fol. 1. 'De affinitatis gradibus' beg. 'Pater est a quo': perhaps a preceding leaf is lost), followed by chapters 'de ponderibus' and 'de mensuris.'
- Fol. 4. 'Fulgentii episcopi [expositio sermonum antiquorum] ad Calcidium Grammaticum': a glossary of obsolete words and phrases: beg. 'Sandapila feretrum mortuorum': at end 'Explicit.'
B. 9th cent.:
- Fol. 6. Servius de Centum Metris, the first leaf lost: beg. 'per [pe]des duplices conputari in ceteris': at end 'Finit.'
- Fol. 11v. 'Incipit de octo partibus. orationibus. seu definitiones partium ...': beg. 'Oratio est ordinatio dictionum': ends 'sed figuratę.'
C. Perhaps about A.D. 900:
- Fol. 16. An anonymous Latin grammar by way of question and answer: the first leaf is in parts illegible: on fol. 17 is, for example, 'Interrogatio. Cuius generis est hoc nomen [homo] ? Responsum. Communis. Interr. Da exemplum. Resp. Dicit Agustinus, commendabat homo (homini) hominem, id est Christus Iohanni Mariam': ends 'estimande sunt', with some specimens of metre. This appears not to be in Keil's Grammatici Latini or the supplement to that work
- Fol. 21. 'Incipit Epistola Hieronimi de pedibus': beg. '1. Pirrichius ex tempore ii.'
