The manuscript belonged to the collection of the Val-Dieu Charterhouse library in the 17th century. The first folio bears the inscription Ex Libris Cartusiae Vallis Dei. It was purchased by the British Museum on the 6th May 1848 from Thomas Rodd - an English librarian, antiquarian and Hispanist.--www.moleiro.com (viewed September 12, 2019)
