Description
Excerpt from The Mythological Acts of the Apostles: Translated From an Arabic Ms. In the Convent of Deyr-Es-Suriani, Egypt, and From Mss. In the Convent of St. Catherine on Mount Sinai and in the Vatican Library
IV. Cod. Sin. Arab. 405, from which I have taken the Martyrdom Of St Paul and St Peter, has also been described in Mrs Gibson''s catalogue. It is an undated paper ms. Probably of a late period, containing 236 leaves, each measuring 33 centimetres by with 21 lines to the page. The script is very clear, but as the texts which I have given from it were found by me amongst my sister''s photographs only after our last visit to Sinai, I am unable to give any further details about the manuscript.
V. The same may be said of the Sinai manuscript marked O, from which I have taken the It is paper, is imperfect at the beginning, and contains 224 leaves. From the script, if Mrs Gibson''s photographs indeed belong to O, we judge that it belongs to some period between the twelfth and the fifteenth century.
