Acquisition

Part of his third donation to the Bodleian, 1639. Former shelfmark L. 32.

Provenance

The two units of the volume perhaps first brought together at the Cisterican abbey of Eberbach: Liber sancti Marie virginis in Ebirbach, fol. 2r (late 14th or 15th century); probably identifiable as G9 in the 1502 catalogue, 'Liber locutorum augustini in geneseos Initium Locutiones scripturarum' (N. Palmer, Zisterzienser und ihre Bücher (1998), p. 238); both parts probably removed from Lorsch to Eberbach between 1233 and 1245 while Lorsch was administered by monks from Eberbach (Palmer, p. 18)
