Md—88,1854,1876,2014,2015,2030[2034]* I have enclosed in [ ] MSS indicated by Hoskier as copies of other extant MSS. Thus, in Md cursive 2034 is a copy of 2036; in Me cursive 2029 is a copy of 2028, and both 205 and 205abs are copies of 209; in Ma-Mb cursive 2258 is a copy of 2076; in Mi cursive 2078 is a copy of 2436. If we ignore these known duplicates, Md comes out with 14 MSS, Me with 28, Ma-Mb with 16, and Mi with 10. The sub-groups within { } are related to the main group, but not totally aligned.2036,2037,2042[11:1–22:21],2043,2046,2047,2074,2082

Comment: As illustrated by this stemma, I posit three main lines of transmission. It follows that if h agrees with f35 against d,e (and a,b,f,g,i) then in 150 we could have two lines against one. Similarly, if g or b agrees with f35 against the rest, then in 150 we could have two lines against one. In such an event there would have to be comparison going on—in the first case either h assimilated to f35 (if the rest have the true reading) or d,e assimilated to a,b,f,g,i (or f35 did the assimilating).

*^ Hoskier does not have 𝕻43,47,85,98,115,0207,0308, of course.

†^ 1064, 1903, 2201, 2323, 2431, 2434, 2554, 2656, 2669 and 2723 are not in Hoskier’s collation.

‡^ Josef Schmid assigned 1384 to Mc and I agree; Hoskier assigned it to Md. Hoskier also assigned 1732 to Md, but I have changed it to Mc (it has a curious mixture of the two profiles).

§^ I have done a thorough collation of 2723—it is a very high quality representative of the family in the 11th century.

*^ I have enclosed in [ ] MSS indicated by Hoskier as copies of other extant MSS. Thus, in Md cursive 2034 is a copy of 2036; in Me cursive 2029 is a copy of 2028, and both 205 and 205abs are copies of 209; in Ma-Mb cursive 2258 is a copy of 2076; in Mi cursive 2078 is a copy of 2436. If we ignore these known duplicates, Md comes out with 14 MSS, Me with 28, Ma-Mb with 16, and Mi with 10. The sub-groups within { } are related to the main group, but not totally aligned.
