Provenance

Mainz, Carthusian abbey of St Michael: MS. Laud Misc. 506 consists of four fascicles, mainly containing sermons. The late 14th/early 15th-cent. list of contents at the upper half of fol. i recto (see A) Provenance) suggests that at least fascicles A–C were already bound together at the time when the inscription was inserted, at the Mainz Charterhouse.

William Laud, 1573–1645: Ex-libris inscription of Archbp. Laud, dated 1638, at the lower margin of fol. i verso.
