Prof. Edmund Hauler published two years ago at Leipzig fragments of a Latin translation of the Didascalia from a palimpsest at Verona, of the fourth century. The upper writing of the MS. belongs to the eighth century, and contains the Sentences of Isidore of Seville. The decipherment of the lower script must have been a trying and laborious work, and it is eminently satisfactory to find such a close agreement between the Latin and the Syriac.
