the other. The htmtih is, by reason of its long sleeves (with which the hands may be covered), the robe of ceremony, apd is worn in the presence of superiors and persons of rank. Over one or both of these robes may be worn the abba^ howmoosj or A^ibe, in any of the modes already indicated. Aged persons often wrap up the head and shoulders with the latter, in the man- ner shown in fig. 4.
This same ilyl^e or wrapper is usually taken by per- sons going on a journey, for the purpose of being used in the same manner as a protection from the sun or wind. This is shown in the annexed cut, represent-

ing a group of persons equipped for travel. The robe is here more succinct and compact, and the firm man- ner in which the whole dress \b girded up about the loins calls to mind th^ passages of Scripture in which the action of " girding up the loins" for a journey is mentioned.
From this it is also seen that travellers usually wear a sword, and the manner in which it is worn is correctly shown. It would also appear that the Jews had swords for such occasional uses (Matt, xxvi, 51 ; Luke xxii, 86).
The necessity of baring the arm for any kind of ex- ertion must be evident from the manner in which it is encum bered in all the dresses we have produced. This action is often mentioned in Scripture, which alone proves that the arm was in ordinary circumstances similarly encumbered by the dress. For ordinary pur- poses a hasty tucking up of the sleeve of the right arm suffices; but for a continued action special contriv- ances are necessary. These are curious, as will be seen by the cut a4Joining. The full sleeves of the

Cotelerlus {Cotelier), John Baptist, an eminent French scholar, bom at Kismes, 1627. At twelve years of age he could read the Hebrew Bible and the Greek Testament with ease. In 1649 he was elected a member of the Sorbonne. He did not receive the degree of doctor, because he refused to take orders. In 1676 he was made Greek lecturer at Paris, and re- tained this post, with great reputation, till his death, August 2, 1686. Most of his literary labor was spent upon the Greek fathers ; and in 1672 he published the " Apostolic Fathers" {Patres Aevi AposioUci, Paris), of which the best edition is Patrum qui temporibus Apos- tolicis JhnierufU opera, recensuit J. Clericus (Amst. 1724, 2 vols. fol.). In 1667 he was commissioned by Colbert to revise and catalogue the Greek manuscripts of the Ro3'al Library. He was engaged in this work, conjointly with the celebrated Du Cange, for five years. In 1676 he obtained through Colbert the chair of Greek at the Royal College of Paris. In 1677 he began the publication of his Ecclestcs Grtscm Afonumenia, e MSS. codicibus, Gr. and Lat (8 vols. 4to ; the 3d vol. appear- ed two days before his death). The fourth volume of this work, for which he had collected much materi^tl^ was published in 1692 by the Maurines. — See Wetzer u.
