X INTRODUCTORY NOTE. rough notes found among his papers, but in the case of the Reliques of the Elders Keble's translation of Irenaeus in the Library of Fathers of the Holy Catholic Church (Parker & Co. 1872) has been adopted with a few verbal alterations. Mr Harmer alone has fulfilled the task of seeing the volume through the press, and the Trustees are indebted to him in this and in other works not only for critical skill and constant care, but also for great generosity which is not further referred to only in deference to his own firmlyexpressedwish. Itshould however be added that the Bishop himselfrecorded in a writter memorandum 'his earnest desire that Mr Harmer's name should stand upon the title page, side byside with his own.' It is hoped that an index of words and phrases will be published separately. H. W. W. May 25, 1891. NOTE TO THE SECOND EDITION. I am indebted to the Reverend J. O. F. Murray, M.A., Fellov and Dean of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, and to other friends foi valuable suggestions, in accordance with which several misprints in th( Greek Text have been corrected, and verbal alterations made in threi places (pp. 86, 412, 529). The recently published volume by th( Master of St John's College, Cambridge, upon The Witness ofHerma. totheFour Gospels (1892), has enabled me to add to the list of Scrip tural passages which illustrate the Shepherd of Hermas. With thes< exceptions the second edition is a reprint ofthe first. R. H. . J. January 20, 1893.
