Further information
Provenance:
- John Whitgift (1530 – 1604), archbishop of Canterbury, 1583 – 1604.
- Richard Bancroft (1544-1610), archbishop of Canterbury, 1604-10: this can be assumed from the fact that this was the usual descent of books from Whitgift to Harsnett.
- Samuel Harsnett (1561 – 1631), archbishop of York, 1629 – 31.
