Provenance: Georg Franz Burkhard Kloß (1787-1854); book-label; see sale (1835), lot 312. The Bodleian Library purchased a copy of this edition at Sotheby's sale (9 Feb. 1847), lot 249, for £0. 7. 0; see Library Bills 1837-8, no. 30 and Books Purchased (1837), 3; another copy was purchased at the sale of J. T. Hand (1837), lot 64 for £0. 1. 0, see Library Bills (1837-8), no. 30; a third copy was purchased for £1. 11. 6; see Books Purchased (1847), 2; the present copy is unlikely to have been Hand's as it does not carry his usual signature, but may be either the first or the third copy.
