Excerpt from Anicii Manlii Severini Boetii Philosophiae Consolationis Libri Quinque: Accedunt Eiusdem Atque Incertorum Opuscula Sacra Recensuit Rudolfus Peiper

In orthogràphia coustituenda hunc maxime librum secu tus sum, ut uetustìssimum atque minus ceteris cum libra riorum incuria tum ìntexpolatornm leuitate corruptum. Recepi igitur quae cum boetîano aeuo couuenire nide bantur; quae ex posterioribus saeculis ìnrepserunt tantum non omnia in notis exhibuî. At praetermisî leuiora uelut ae cl conmutata (non raro e pro ae alia m. In correxit), î cò similia, qua in re cum dubium esset lineola nsta utrum n an m significaretur, in con nonnìsi eis locis in textu reposuì ubi id omnibus litteris in optimis libris extaret, atque hoc ita se habere testimonus codicum in notis adscrîptis docui, eandemque rationem in aliis minu tulis rebus orthographicis secutus sum, ut non disere pantìam sed consensum potins librorum infra indicarem.
