Probably used somewhere in or around Oxford before the Reformation.

Dark leather binding with blind-tooled lines and cornerpieces. The binder is unknown, but the general appearance suggests that the book was bound in Oxford in the 2^nd half of the 17^th century.

The host volume belonged to Herlufsholm Skole, a private Latin school located in Næstved, Sealand founded in 1565 on the grounds of a secularised Benedictine monastery, St Peders Kloster. The old library of Herlufsholm was transferred to the University Library of Southern Denmark in 1968-69.
This book is part of a donation made to the school by count Otto Thott (1703-1785), who became warden of the school in 1763 until his death in 1785. Well-known for his book collecting, he gave about 6000 volumes to Herlufsholm’s library in several shipments beginning in 1777. Thott bought many books from Oxford, where he studied for a time in the 1720s.
