    Codex
    Material:
    Parchment.
    Provenance:

    In the Chapter-Library of the Cathedral of Saint-Pierre, Beauvais by the late twelfth-century. Folio 2r: in a twelfth century hand: 'xlvii. dg. volentem me paruo. In sex libris translata Adamantii greci.' (In larger letters:) 'Explanatio Orlgenis super epistolam pauli ad romanos.' The upper right corner of this leaf is torn off. The letters dg are a class·mark, belonging to a set introduced at the end of the twelfth century in the Beauvais Chapter-Library. In the memoir of M. Henri Omont on this Library (Recherches sur la Bibl. de l'Égl. Cath. de Beauvais. Mém. de l'Acad. des Inscr. et Belles-lettres, xi. 1914), this manuscript is mentioned at p. 82. Folios 2r, 91r and 162v in a twelfth-century hand: 'Petri belvacensis'.

    Purchased from Bernard Quaritch (b. 1819, d. 1899), bookseller and publisher on 30th July 1909 for £70, acccession number R20912.

    According to de Ricci (RLL, Sept. 1923) this manuscript was no. 6 in the Troussures sale at Paris on 9th July 1909, where presumably Quaritch acquired it.
