Probably an English manuscript. There are various names indicating ownership. On f. 130v, Memorandum quod dompnus Thomas de Byghenale prior, in a contemporary hand. On f. 1, Ric. Byngham of Newarke in ye County of Notts, and on a fly-leaf at the end, M^a yt I Ric[hard] Bingham of Newarke, and the name Stamfford.

Of later date the volume bears the autograph of Peter le Neve, Norroy Herald (1704-29), with some notes by him of its contents. The inscription is as follows: Liber Petri Le Neve Norroy Regis Armorum 1704 ex dono Laud Doyley generosi de le Strand mcrceri. Peter le Neve's books passed to Thomas Martin of Palgrave, who married his widow, and were finally sold by auction in 1731. This manuscript seems to have been acquired by Lord Alva, and to have come into the Library with others of his books.

Title given to the manuscript in Catherine Borland’s catalogue: Tractatus theologicus ex auctoritate sanctorum compilatus.

D. b. IV. 12.
