resolving the reading of the manuscripts. We do not wish to omit those who published critical reviews of the previous section in journals, namely in the English The Academy, 15 January 1873, pp. 37 sqq., and in the German Zeitschrift der deutschen morgenländischen Gesellschaft [Journal of the German Oriental Society], vol. XXVII, pp. 161 sqq., and Göttingische gelehrte Anzeigen [Göttingen Learned Notices], 2 July 1873, pp. 104 sqq., and also 4 May 1875, pp. 547 sqq. The observations which the very learned Th. Nöldeke, professor at Strasbourg, gathered there regarding the first volume of our work did not reach us until after the second volume had already gone to press. We regret this: they could have been used to enrich the Addenda et Corrigenda [Additions and Corrections] added at the end of volume II. In the meantime, quite a few errors corrected by him have been amended and appear there of their own accord. Now, however, you will find the main items remaining to be corrected, noted by Nöldeke, in columns 645 sq. of this volume, kind reader.
