APPENDIX II.
Facsimiles of the Oldest Manuscripts of the Athanasian Creed and the Apostles' Creed.
We present here a reproduction, on a small scale, of the Athanasian Creed and the Apostles' Creed from the Utrecht Psalter, which was brought prominently to light in 1873, in connection with the Anglican controversy on the Athanasian Creed, and photographed in London, 1875. See Vol. I, p. 37, note, and Vol. II., pp. 66–71. It is the oldest copy known of these important documents. Between the two is a rude picture of the last judgment, which could not be well reproduced, and is unnecessary for our purpose.
The Athanasian Creed.
