Tanner mentions that a Latin version of this by Christopherson was dedicated to Henry VIII. The author was an original Fellow of the College, was Master of it from 1553 to 1558, and also Dean of Norwich: in exile during Edward VI.'s reign, he died Bishop of Chichester in 1558.

A slip of vellum (glossed Aristotle? xiii-xiv) has been removed from the binding (photographed at the end)
