Provenance
- Lowe compared the script of these folios to that of Cotton MS Augustus II
18, the text of which seems to date from 704-5 (Lowe, Codices
Latini Antiquiores , ii, no. 189). The
script somewhat resembles that of 'Glossator B', associated with St
Boniface and possibly associated with Malmesbury (for more
information, see Thomson, 'Identifiable books' (1981), p. 9).
- ?
The Benedictine abbey of Malmesbury: a copy of Junilius's work was
noted there by Leland (see Thomson 'Identifiable books' (1981), p.
8).
- ?
The Benedictine abbey of Glastonbury: an old ( vetustus
) copy of Junilius's work was listed in
the Glastonbury library catalogue of 1247 (see Sharpe and others,
English Benedictine libraries (1996),
p. 207).
