The Consolation of Philosophy

From the notes that Schepss took, a great agreement is evident with codex V (no. 78), which also pertains to the corrections; scholia are rarely written in the margin, though the metrical explanations of Lupus for individual poems appear more frequently. Cf. Delisle in Notices et extraits 1884, and concerning Albinus, the scribe of the codex, Bibl. école d. chart. LXII 157. For us, Aur.

4. Orléans 271 (227), 11th century.

5. Bamberg M IV 2 (F 7 Cathedral Library), 10th century (cf. Jaeck, Schrifttafeln III 4, 8), carelessly written in two columns, collated by Peiper (B). Contains: Consolatio and Ambrose, On the Death of his Brother original: "De excessu fratris". Epigraph begins: Ut gaudere solet.

6. Bamberg M V 12 (F 21), 11th century; in the margin the names of the meters are repeated from the commentary of Lupus. It appeared to Peiper, who collated the book (C), to have been copied either from the Bern 179 codex itself, before it was corrected, or from a codex very similar to it; however, I do not doubt that it flowed from the corrected T codex. We have kept the siglum C.

7. Bern 179, 9th/10th century, 64 f. (of which the last contains The Partitions of the Twelve Principal Verses of the Aeneid by the grammarian Priscian: Gr. L. III 457). Contains: Consolatio with scholia and biographies. The context, to use the words of Peiper, who utilized the collation of Kurz, is full of errors, through which a very careless scribe corrupted the words of the author; cf. Naumann, l. l. 9. We have retained the siglum K.

8. Bern 181 (formerly of the masters of the Sorbonne), 10th/11th century, 83 f. (see Peiper, p. VIIII), ends at p. 126, 25 praestare, supplied in the 14th century; inspected by the librarian Bloesch through the favor of Schepss.

9. Bern 421, 11th century, 70 f. Contains: Metrical Treatise, Biographies, Consolatio. Peiper (ed. p. VIIII, XXXV ff.), to whom it is G, says it is highly interpolated.

10. Bern 455 and A 92, 9th/10th century. Contains: certain fragments, which you should look for in Peiper, p. VIII ff. ($β$).

11. Bonn 175 (36), 9th/10th century (not 12th, as written in the catalog of Klette and Staender), the quality of which Peiper, who collated it, praises. The text begins p. 34, 14, ends 120, 23; furthermore, 40, 6—41, 21; 43, 16—44, 27; 52, 20—53, 24; 65, 22—66, 27; 114, 3—116, 27 have fallen out; cf. Naumann 14; 17; 21; 22, 1. E. Steinmeyer, Althochd. Glossen IV 388. We have kept Peiper’s siglum D.
