These are the passages for which I have a Greek and/or Latin text to match to a more-or-less modern English translation. Yes, many come from your very own Text Excavation site! I will see if there are any corrections to come from board members before compiling a master file of all of them (English, Greek, Latin, sorry no Syriac or Arabic).
