Acquisition
"From no. 8620, pp. 176 et sqq., this manuscript belonged to Reading abbey, and so no doubt was presented by Wm Burdet of Sonningin 1608. However, it is possible that this manuscript and MS. Bodl. 695ought to change places, since Thomas Barlowgives 'L. 3. 8' Th. as the old pressmark of MS. Bodl. 695, but Barlow's list of old pressmarks is not certainly correct" (Summary Catalogue)
