63 BERN Canton Library, No. 125 French.

I have examined this MS. minutely, and am satisfied that it is a copy of Pauthier's C. i.e., No. 20, in our List. Like that (and no other), it bears the certificate regarding the Seigneur de Cepoy. (Vol. i., _Int., Notices of Marco in later life._) The MS. is fully described in Sinner's Catalogue. It is in very beautiful condition, very clearly written on parchment, with all the initials filled up in gold and colours, and with numerous flowered scrolls.

It belonged to Bongars, whose autograph is on it: "_Bongars--l'a de la courtoisie de Mr. de Superville._"
