Acquisition

Presented by dr. Thomas James in 1601.

Provenance

Owned on May 29, 1590, by John Sprint (not the dean of Bristol who died in that year).

New College, Oxford (?): the Summary Catalogue stated that 'there can be little doubt that these are the two 'Claudiani Opera in Bib. Col. Noui' which dr. James catalogued as in New College in 1600 (Ecloga, 1600, p. 83)', but the volume is not listed in MLGB.
