Provenance Corbie: the manuscript can be identified with an item in the thirteenth-century Corbie catalogue; the seventeenth-century entry 'Ex libris S. Petri Corbeiensis' is seen on fol. 1. Later at Saint-Germain-des-Prés, where it was numbered '1274, olim 137' (fol. 1), saec. XVIII. The manuscript has a Carolingian binding. |
