2. Parisino 2253 (A) (formerly Colbert. 4864, Reg. 3141).
It is a parchment manuscript of 192 leaves from the 11th century, written by Michael the calligrapher. Besides Galen's books X and XIV, it contains these writings of Hippocrates: 1. Κωακαὶ προγνώσεις Coan Prognoses fol. 1a—33b, 2. Περὶ τροφῆς On Nourishment fol. 34a—36b, 3. Περὶ πτισάνης On Barley Gruel fol. 37a—64a, 4. Περὶ χυμῶν On Humors fol. 65a—70b, 5. Περὶ ὑγρῶν χρήσιος On the Use of Liquids fol. 70b—74b, 6. Ἐπιβώμιος At the Altar fol. 74b—75a, 7. Περὶ τέχνης On the Art fol. 75a—81a, 8. Περὶ φύσιος ἀνθρώπου On the Nature of Man fol. 81a—93b, 9. Περὶ φυσῶν On Winds fol. 93b—100a, 10. Περὶ τόπων τῶν κατ' ἀνθρώπου On Places in Man fol. 100a—117b, 11. Περὶ ἀρχαίης ἰητρικῆς On Ancient Medicine fol. 117b—130a, 12. Ἐπιδημίαι Epidemics fol. 130b—144b (lib. I). Then follow Galen's Περὶ χρείας μορίων On the Usefulness of the Parts book X fol. 145a—169a, book XIV fol. 169b—192a, the beginning of book XV fol. 192b. Galen's six books are contained in quaternions or forty-eight leaves; the quaternions are indicated in the upper margin with the Greek letters α, β, γ, δ, ε, ϛ. On each page, there are twenty-eight lines. On the last page, the strokes of the letters have faded so much that they can barely be distinguished. It seems to end at the words ἔχοις ἂν ἄμεινον χωρίῳ you would have it better in the passage (vol. IV p. 212, 14 K). The indices of the chapters prefixed to each book are these: fol. 145 ΠΕΡΙ ΧΡΕΙΑΣ ΜΟΡΙΩΝ ΒΙΒΛΙΟΝ ῑ. περὶ ὀφθαλμῶν: ὅτι τὸ κρυσταλλοειδὲς κυριώτατον ὄργανον τῆς ὄψεως ὑπάρχει. ~ ὅτι ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ κρυσταλλοειδοῦς ὑγροῦ καὶ τοῦ κερατοειδοῦς χιτῶνος συνι- On the Usefulness of the Parts, Book 10. On the eyes: that the crystalline is the principal organ of sight. ~ that between the crystalline humor and the corneal tunic there are formed the cataracts.
