561    Taylor MS. 11 was written by a scribe of West Yorkshire origin, probably in Yorkshire, and may have belonged to the Augustinian Priory of the Blessed Virgin Mary, at Bolton, West Yorkshire. The American antiquarian bookseller Laurence C. Witten (1926-1995), of New Haven, Connecticut, acquired the manuscript and sold it to Robert H. Taylor (1908-1985), of Princeton, New Jersey, Class of 1930. Taylor's blue oval bookplate is on the inside front cover. His bequest to the Princeton University Library, 1985.
