History

The manuscript was beautifully written by Johannes Trithemius († 1516), abbot of Sponheim.[3] Then it belonged to Jan Cornarius († Jena 1558) Achates Cornarius († Kreuznach 1573). In 1607 it was received from Abraham Scultetus by George Hackwell, for the Oxford University library.[4]

It was examined by Ussher (for Walton), Mill (as Trit.), Griesbach (only chapters 3-4), and Tischendorf. It was used in Walton's Polyglott (Trit).[3] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1883.[4]

It is currently housed at the Bodleian Library (Auct. D. 2. 17), at Oxford.[2]
