Summary: Parker acquired CCCC MS 347 from Norwich cathedral priory, and it was one of three that the priory had been bequeathed by their former owner, Cardinal Adam Easton OSB (c. 1330-97), that Parker secured (see also CCCC MSS 74 and 180). It contains the 'Almanac' (Tabulae almanac) of Profatius Iudaeus (Jacob ben Machir) (fl. 1288-1301) and other astrological material, a Norwich cathedral priory calendar and the only known surviving fragment of Easton's treatise Expositio quorundam terminorum astrologicorum. It was almost certainly once part of the Cardinal's reputedly extensive personal library. If so, it was probably among the 228 books from that source which arrived in Norwich, packed in six barrels, in 1407, ten years after Easton's death in Rome.
