Early works to 1800

1400

Erased pencil page numbers, lack of a title page, and the finding tab all suggest that this manuscript may once have included Books I-II.

Formerly held at a Carthusian monastery in Erfurt (Zacour-Hirsch).; Gift of Albert C. Baugh, 1965.; Baugh, Albert C. 1891-1981, former owner.
