Provenance:
Donum Reuerendi Viri Rogeri Flint A.M. Norfolciensis Presbyteri dignissimi et hujus Collegii olim alumni. He was admitted in 1632, M.A. 1641, elected Fellow but never admitted: Chaplain to Charles I and published Edw. Boyse's Sermons in 1672 (Masters, p. 468)., From Christ Church, Canterbury. No mark remains, and the hand is not that characteristic of the house. But the opening words of f. 2r agree with an entry in Ingram's list (Anc. Lib., p. 157, no. 125): Hilarius de. trinitate. Idem de sinodis. 2 fo. atque omnipotenciam. See also no. 886 in Eastry's Catalogue, (l. c., p. 87)., and Though given by Roger Flint and not occurring in T. James, it occurs in Parker's list. Very probably it had been separated from its companions soon after Parker's death, and was absent in 1599 or so, when T. James wrote: it may have been subsequently found by Flint and restored to the College.
