Acquisition
It probably therefore came to the Library in 1756: on the inside cover is a note in Rawlinson's hand. The manuscript seems to have been detached from the rest of the Rawlinson collection and to have been inserted in the Bodley collection about A.D. 1800 or a little earlier.
Provenance
No. 847 in the Thomas Rawlinson sale, Dec. 14, 1721.
Apparently then bought by Dr. Richard Rawlinson for £1 15s.
