Excerpt from Evangelia Apocrypha: Adhibitis Plurimis Codicibus Graecis Et Latinis Maximam Partem Nunc Primum Consultis Atque Ineditorum Copia Insignibus

Tertii generis libellos edidimus tredecim. Primum hoses sex Gesta Pilati graece A, graece B; item eadem latine; Dsscensum Christi ad inferos grasce; item latine A et latine B. Pertinent haec omnia ad evangelium Nicodemi quod dici solet, cuius duas partes idoneis de caussis separatim dedimus. Rursus vero tanta est quum in gracco Gestorum Pi lati tum in latino Descensus Christi textu antiquorum testium discrepantia ut duas certe recensiones distingui debeant, qua rum utramque plsnam et continuam repraesentavimus. In his nunc primum a nobis editur textus Gestorum Pilati graecus B ex tribus codicibus, item ex totidem codicibus latinus textus alter libelli quem Dsscensum Christi ad inferos diximus. De libris reliquis quatuor Gesta Pilati graece A recensuimus ad graecos codices octo, quorum duo Monacenses iter'um et accurate contulimus, tres alios sed non integros primi excussimus. Prasterea adhibuimus primi sum mae vetustatis reliquias duas, alteras coptas papyraceas, alteras pauciores latinas ex palimpsesto codice haustas. Porro gras cum Descensus Christi textum ad codices conformavimus tres, quorum praestantissimus nondum innotuerat. Latinus vero noster Gsstorum Pilati textus a Thilonis plurimum difi'ert; quippe quem ad octo testes, quorum quinque Thilonsm latuerant, recensers licebat. Minor inter Thilonsm et me dis crepantia est in altero latino tsxtu Descensus Christi ad inferos, quamquam st ipsum ex pluribus novis subsidiis et emendavimus et illustravimus.
