Acquisition

Donated to the Bodleian, 1634.

Provenance

Fols. 147-180: Osney, Oxfordshire, Augustinian abbey of St Mary the Virgin (?) : Provenance inferred from contents. 'Hemingburgh' inflated with annals of Oseney as in Cotton Tib. A.ix. (MLGB3: evidence from locally specific contents, including obits, scribbles, etc.).

T. Allen. (MLGB3)

Cf. Hardy, Cat. Mat., 3. 257. Originally foliated xxxix–lxxiii. Marginalia fols. 157–158 show interest in Oseney. (MLGB3)

Kenelm Digby, 1603–1665
