Excerpt from Thucydidis Historiae, Vol. 1: Libri I-IV

Cum a bibliopola honestissimc rogatus essem, ut edi tieni Thucydidis criticae mmc ipsum absolutae minorem apparatn critico breviore instructam adderem, hoc mihi pofissimum agendum esse videbat'ur, ut discrepantiis le vioribus omissis scripturae cum utriusque codicum familiae tum codicum 0 et B, quorum summa. Est auctoritas, per Spicue preponerentur. Quod ut assequerer,' codices 0 et G siglo c, codices baefm siglo b complems, sicubi alteruter codicum C et B a ceteris discrepat, scripturam diserte indicavi, nisi quod vitia ex itacismo orta fere omisi. Sed in extremo Opere, inde ab capite 92. Libri VI., cum codicum meliorum solus B, quocum maiore ex parte unus deterioram, H, consentit', longius ab omnibus ceteris recedat, ita rem agi, ut codices acefgm siglo 0 signi ficarem ueque tamen, ubi solita familiarum discrepantia exstitisset, pristina indicandi ratione abstinerem. Nam codicem B in hac parte non memoriam prorsus aliam, sed, si totam rem species, eandem, Opera correctoris gra vins immutatam illam quidem', exhibere, praeterquam quod in bonis scripturis hand raro cum codice 0 solo consentit, inde mihi apparere videtur, quod quae ei con iunctio cum codice A, in pravis maxime, intercedit in bis.
