E DIT ORES INTRODUCTION THE dated manuscripts in this fasciculus are only a l'art of those in the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana in Rome. The remainder will be published in Fasciculi VIII and IX. So far as possible, we have endeavomed to present them in chronological order but, in some cases, this has proved impossible. The manuscripts which are not given in their chronological order will be found at the end 01' the section on the manuscripts in the Vatican, in Fasciculus IX. In Il few cases, the date ofa manuscript differs considerably from that given in the catalogue, but under these circumstances we usually give the manuscript the position in the chronological scheme indicated by the date in the catalogue, sin ce it seemed to us that this would facilitate matt ers for other scholars who know it only from previous references. W e wish to express om thanks to the entire staff of the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, whose patience and co-operation made om task so much easier than it might ha ve been, and particularly to the Prefect and to Monsignor de Vreese. Om gratitude is also especiallydue to Their Eminences Giovanni Cardinal Mercati and Eugene Cardinal Tisserant who, at the time when these volumes were fìrst in preparation, were Prefetto and Proprefetto of the library and were prodigaI of their time and their learning for om benefìt. Moreover, the elder of the two editors desires to ex press his indebtedness to the late Cardinal Ehrle, who lives on in the minds of so many who were helped by him in their youth and remember him in their later years. Kmsopp LAKE SILVA LAKE Rome, Italy Ju.ly, 1937 NOTE S INCE it is in evitable that d ifferen t studenls should wish lo urrange lhe manuscripts included in this series III different ways it hus been decided to lcave the pl ates unbound. 1='or purposes of publication, however. thc manu scripts from each library are givcn in chrollological OI'der aocl numbered serially t hroughout the separate fascicul i. This serial number is rcpeated in t hc upper left·hand corner of each plate iIlustrating tbc particu lar manuscript lo which the num ber refers. Tbc plates themsclves are also numbered serially, and t hc number of l he indi viduai plate is given in the UppCl' r ight-hand corner of euch. ,,'c bave red uced t he descriptive material to a min imu m, omi tting detai ls of exact sizc aud 5uch other data as may be found in t he catalogues of the indi viduai libraries. After some hesitntion we incl uded ce rtain details, such as tbe colour of the in k aud the q uulity of th e pal'chmen t in each manuscript, which mi ght seem unduly subjective. ' The Ruling Types in clude, of course, mun y which are not foun cl in the manuscripts described in this fa sciculu s. In theil' pl'eparatioll a rigidly schcmatic treatment was adhered to. They are di agrums, not pi ctures. In particul ar, it wOlllci have bcen impossible to indicate in t be diagrams wbclhcr t hc l'u]cd lincs enclcd evenly or un evenly, alld whether in any particular instance t he r uliug was done more or less carefully. The dots indicate lines of wl'iting for which there are no ruled lin es. U nless olherwise indicated, thc plates are facsim iles, and in t he few cuses where this is not so there is at lea.st a sample facsimile of the hand, or bancls. In transcribin g the colophons abbreviations are expandecl. The spelling of these expansions is conventi onalized, although elsewbere t he peculi al'ities of t he individuai sCl'ibcs have been retnined. Tbe last fasciculus wi ll contain coniplcte indices aud the descriptions and facs imiles of any mUl1uscripts wh ich could not be inserted in their proper posi tions.
