Collectanea et excerpta variis manibus s. XVII. scripta.

Miscellaneous notes and collections of several hands saec. XVII. Fol 79r-81v contain under the heading: Ex antiquisso manuscripto Hib. Incipiunt libri S. Patricii a text of the Confessio as far as 238, 11 qui sumus nos epistola Christi, further a note concerning Palladius (from the Additamenta to Tírechán) and the Dicta Patricii. All this has been copied from D¹), with occasional corrections from Ware's edition and others which appear to be the transcriber's own guesses. [Quote from Bieler's Introduction, p. 8.]

Note from Dr. B. C. Barker-Benfield (Senior Assistant Librarian, Bodleian Library): "This manuscript contains the Confessio Patricii at fols. 79r-80v (four pages). The next three pages, foliated 81ar, 81av and 81br are blank. Fol. 81bv contains notes relevant to St Patrick, including a paragraph headed 'Dicta Patricii' ('Timorem dei habui ducem itineris mei ...') ..."
