History
Provenance and Acquisition
Worcester, Worcestershire, Benedictine cathedral priory of St Mary the Virgin: "Iohannes de Clina monachus" in initial, fol. i recto. Written by John Clyve: the writing is by the same hand as the obedientiary rolls of John Clive monk of Worcester, A. D. 1401–1423. (MLGB3: evidence from the style of script or illumination).
MS. Rawl. C.156 is another copy of this work. Medieval binding: traces of label formerly pasted on second cover. (MLGB3)
