Provenance and Acquisition
On fol. 138 (erased) is 'Liber Henrici Jacksoni Oxon Collegii Corporis Christi . MDC . Maii xxi liberati. O Deus sciam te, sciam me!'.
Probably acquired by purchase from him in 1619–20, and perhaps the last item under Gregorius Magnus in the 1620 Catalogue, as G. 7. 15 Th.
