There is the bookplate of Thomas Ruddiman, the keeper of the Advocates Library, on the front pastedown. The title page, which has been cropped and affixed to a blank leaf, has numerous inscriptions includings "Omnia sunt hominu[m] tenuj pendentiafilo / Et subito Casu que valuere ruu[n]t" in a sixteenth century hand. There is also a contemporary inscription "Davidsone" between the fourth and fifth lines of text on the recto of leaf a1. On the verso of the final leaf, which has also been cropped and affixed to a blank leaf, there is an inscription "Johannes Mychell est hiuius" in an apparently contemporary hand.
