- Provenance
- Purchased from A.S.W. Rosenbach, 1923. Numerous marginal ms. annotations and leaves of ms. text (bound before the first work and between the two incunabula) by Johann Pilter, written approximately 1478-1480. Pilter also left his name at various places in the volume, including on leaf [y]8v, "Anno domini Mo cccclxxviiio Hos sermones et postillas Ego Iohannes pylter mecum duxi de Treveri circa festum sancte Margarete cum ibi presens eram cum clusenario meo de Wehene scilicet hinrico tuleman deo gratias. Amen" and on leaf [D]7v, "Istum librum ego Iohannes pylter plebanus in Sydinchuss concessi ad bonam custodiam devoto patri domino conrado lovelinaus[?] terciario in hovegeismare usque ad revocationem, in presentia domini Iohannis Conradi et Iohannis de Ad[?] ipso die beate Anne in Buren, anno 1487". This book was not among the books which Pilter left to Eberhardsklausen (Windesheim Congregation) and which passed to the Staatsbibliothek in Trier in 1802, since he gave it to a Franciscan of Hofgeismar, where it apparently remained until the secularization. Belonged to Leander van Ess; his initials in pale red ink on f. 3 of the manuscript. Sold by him to Sir Thomas Phillipps; with his shelfmark "119" on front pastedown.
