(4) Berol. Sachmc 222. This is a transcript made for Dr Sachau
in A.D. 1 88 1 from an older ms at Alkosh, and forms part of the Syriac
collection which he procured for the Berlin library.
It is a volume
of Acta Martyrum, beginning with Thomas the Apostle and ending
with Thekla. See Sachau's Kurzes Verzeichniss der Sachau'schen
Sammlung Syrischer Handschrifteti (Berlin 1S85), and compare his
Reisc in Syrien u. Mesopotaiiiien pp. 364, 366 (Leipzig 1883). The
Acts of Ignatius begin on fol. 122. This ms was kindly collated for
me by Dr Sachau himself, and its various readings are recorded in
the present edition by Dr Wright.
This Syriac version of the Antiochene Acts has been edited anew by
Dr AVright for the present work (in. p. 103 sq). The various readings
of the four mss, designated A, B, C, D, respectively, are there given.
The Epistle to the Romans incorporated in these Acts was translated,
together with the Acts themselves, directly from the Greek, and is
therefore quite independent of the general Syriac version of the Ignatian
Epistles It is
[S]. very loose and paraphrastic. Only those variations
are given in my apparatus criticus, which have some value in determining
the Greek text or are otherwise of interest.
(v)
Copto-Thebaic [C].
A fragment of a version in the Sahidic or Thebaic dialect of the
Coptic language was printed for the first time for my first edition, having
been transcribed by me several years before. Before the actual appearance
of my work however, it was published independently by
Ciasca in Pitra's Anal. Sacr. Spicil. Solesm. Par. iv. p. 255 sq (1883).
Borg. 248. This ms is
inadequately described in Zoega's Catalogus
Codicum Copticorum Manuscriptoruin qui in Museo Borgiano Velitris
adscft'anfur (Romae, 18 10) p. 604, as follows: ' Primo loco occurrit

11. Pariter alia
epistola sancti Ignatii martyris quem vocant Theophorum, i.e. qui
Deum fert; quam scripsit ad Smyrnaeos.' The heading of the Epistle to
the Smyrnseans is not quite accurate, as will appear by comparing
it with
the transcript printed in this edition :
and moreover Zoega does not say
whether the ms contains the title
only or part of the epistle; and, if
the latter, to which recension it
belongs. This ms, together with the
