The fragments were recovered from the binding of a copy (pressmark K.107.a) of “Queen Anna`s new world of words” (London, 1611), by John Florio.
On one of the paper fragments, both of which had been used as endpapers, part of an inscription, "... Pryce 04:00:00 Tho Pringle", written apparently in an early 18th-century hand, can be read.
