The Latin apparatus at the foot of each page (variants of codices B and C) is interleaved in the OCR; readings marked in the text with C-only additions are de Goeje's choices. Where the cited sentence rests on a manuscript variant this is said in the prose. The de Goeje preface is not in this scan. OCR by Apple Vision; the Arabic of the main text is mostly clean, the apparatus is noisy.",
