Notes:

B.L. Arundel 36, Cotton Vesp. B.xi fols. 84–125, 125* and Royal 13 A.xxi fols. 151–192 formed one volume; see A. G. Watson, The Manuscripts of Henry Savile of Banke (1969), pp. 74–77.

Leaves numbered 58–100 in s. xvi, in continuation of the numbering 1–57 in Arundel 36 q. v. Fols. 84–86 are the last three leaves of a quire, presumably the same quire as that from which Arundel 36, fols. 53–57 come. Text goes straight on from Arundel 36 fol. 57v and in the same hand.
