MEDICAL WORKS of Oribasius (the 4th cent. Greek physician, born at Sardis or Pergamus), in Latin, viz.: 1. 'D. Oribasii Archiatri Iuliani Caesaris medicinae compendium ad Eustathium filium': lib. i of the Synopsis, in the old Latin translation, printed in the Basel ed. (ap. Hen. Petrum, 1529), p. 283, and (from a 10th cent. Laon MS.) by Molinier (Œuvres d'Otibase, Paris, 1873, v). The preface is absent. Beg. 'Ante exercitationem calefacere'. f. 1.
2. 'D. Oribasii [&c.] Euporiston ad Eunapium liber primus (-simplicium medicamentorum ad Eunapium liber ii-De alimentis ad Eunapium liber iii)'. This arrangement corresponds to the Basel ed., p. 243, except that the preface is again lacking; it differs, however, from the Greek text and also from Molinier's Latin text (op. cit. vi), libb. i, ii being books i and ii of the Euporista, while lib. iii here is book iv of the Synopsis. Lib. i. beg. 'Nato igitur infante'; lib. ii, 'Adiantus, asparagus'; lib. iii, 'Allium, cepa, nasturtium'. f. 14.
3. 'D. Oribasii Sardiani [&c.] ad Eunapium de curationibus liber'; as in the Basel ed., p. 300, but with some variations and transpositions in text. Several lacunae are marked by the transcriber. The differences from Molinier's text are greater. The first part of this book corresponds to bk. iv, ch. 1-122 of the Euporista, the latter part (from the ch. Contra singula venena) to the latter part of bk. iii. Beg. 'Si capiti ex nimio dolore'. f. 49 b.
4. 'D. Oribasii [&c.] medicaminum liber'; as in the Basel ed., p. 137. This tract, however, does not occur in the Greek text and is not mentioned by Molinier. Beg. 'Electuarium Diospoliticon': Hoc medicamen non inutile exponam'. f. 96 b.
The vellum fly-leaf (f. 108) is from a late 13th cent. Latin Bible written in two columns, containing judges xx. 25-xxi. 10.
Paper (exc. f. 108); ff. 108. Folio. 111/2 in. x 8 in. XVI cent, Greek words are in Greek characters. Belonged (f. 1) to (Henry Fitzalan, Earl of] Arundel, and [John, Lord] Lumley. Lumley cat. f. 395; not in cat. of 1666 or CMA.
