N.B., items below may have been listed out of folio order in Wright's catalogue.
Addition 1 (Fol. 63a):
On fol. 63a, between the last line of the text and the subscription, the scribe Constantine has recorded his name:
ܟܠ ܕܩ̇ܪܐ ܢܨܠܐ ܥܠ ܩܘܣܛܢܛܝܢܐ ܟܬܘܒܐ.
Addition 2 (Fol. 63b):
On fol. 63b there is an ancient note, written by a priest named Sābā, stating that this and some, other volumes were collated in the convent of Mār Zacchæus.
ܐܬܦܚܡ ܟ̈ܬܒܐ ܗ̈ܠܝܢ ܒܕܝܪܐ ܕܡܪܝ ܙܟܝ ܟܠ ܡ̇ܢ ܕܩܪܐ ܢܨܠܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܪܢ ܥܠ ܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܠܐܝ ܒܦܘܚܡܐ ܕܟ̈ܬܒܐ ܗ̈ܠܝܢ ܐܢܐ ܣܒܐ ܩܫܝܫܐ ܟܬܒܝܬ ܨܠܘ ܥܠܝ܀܀܀
Addition 3 (Fol. 63b):
Just below this there stands a note of more recent date, which informs us that the book belonged at one time to a deacon named Sa'īd bar Cyrus of Nisibis.

Addition 4 (Fol. 64a):
On fol. 64a we find a contemporary record of the death of Isaac, abbat of the convent called
ܕܝܪܐ ܕܐܘܪ̈ܛܝܐ,
or the Convent of the Iberians, dated 1st Ilūl, A.G. 894,
A.D.583. See Assemani, Bibl. Orient., t. i. p. 274, note.:

Addition 5 (Fol. 64a):
Under this there was a note, now almost obliterated, identical in purport with the second note on fol. 63b. It begins:
ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ [ܕܡܪܩܘܣ] ܕܣܝܥܝܕ ܒܨܝܪܐ ܕܒܫܡ ܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܢܨܝܒܝܢ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ. ܘܫ.
Addition 6 (Fol. 64b):
On fol. 64 b there is a note, apparently of the ixth cent., written by a priest named Abraham, stating that he gave this volume to a congregation ܟܢܘܫܝܐ of monks, the name of which has been purposely effaced.
ܐܬܚܦܛ ܘܝܗ̣ܒ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܡܪܩܘܣ. . . ܐܒܪܗܡ ܩܫܝܫܐ. ܚܠܦ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܕܚ̈ܝܘܗܝ̣ ܘܕܘܟܪܢܐ ܕܐܒܗ̈ܘܗܝ ܘܕܟܠ ܥܢܝ̈ܕܘܗܝ. ܕܐܠܗܐ ܗ̇ܘ ܕܡܛܠ ܫܡܗ ܩܕܝܫܐ: ܘܡܛܠ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܕܥܬܝܕ̣. ܝܨܦ ܘܣܡ ܣܝܡܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܪܘܚܢܝܬܐ ܠܩܪܝܢܐ ܘܠܗܓܝܢܐ ܕܐܚ̈ܐ̣. ܗ̣ܘ ܢܬܠ ܠܗ ܕܢܫܟܚ ܪ̈ܚܡܐ ܘܦܘܪܩܢܐ܇ ܡܐ ܕܡܬܓܠܐ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܠܗܢ ܒܫܘܒܚܗ.. ܥܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܩܕܝܫ̈ܐ. ܘܠܥܢܝ̈ܕܘܗܝ ܢܥܒܕ ܕܘܟܪܢܗܘܢ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ.. ܐܢ ܘܐܡܝܢ.. ܘܟܠ ܡ̇ܢ ܕܫܩ̇ܠ ܠܗ ܠܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ: ܐܝܟ ܕܢܩܪܐ ܒܗ: ܐܘ ܕܢܟܬܘܒ ܡܢܗ: ܐܘ ܒܚܕ ܡܢ ܦܘܪ̈ܣܝܢ: ܘܟܐܡ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܘܠܐ ܡܦܢܐ ܠܗ ܠܟܢܘܫܝܐ. . . ܬܚܝܬ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܚܝܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ܀
Addition 7 (Fol. 64b):
Above this there is written in a ruder and more modern hand:
ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܠܒܬ ܝܠܕܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܣܘܪܪܝܝܐ ܢܣܒ (?)ܠܗ ܡܢ ܕܝܪܐ ܬܚܬ ܦܣܩ ܐܝܬܘ.
Addition 8 (Fol. 60b):
