The recto of the second front flyleaf is inscribed "Ex libris Caroli Fraser SS. Trin. Cant. Pretiu[m] - o - o - 2d" in a 17th-century hand. A similar inscription with slight variations, "Ex libris Caroli Fraser Coll: SS. Trinit. Cantab Pretium - o - o - 2d", is located on the title page, followed by a signature "AFletcher" (also repeated on the title page of the second book in the volume). The verso of the second front flyleaf contains a long inscription about the author: "This is John Leech ye Calydonian y[r] hath no Composition at all; but a f[...]rdall of soft [wi]ning words putt togather. he slides & markis no sound you may call him a weomans-Poet as you have your weomens-Taylors. He writes a verse as smooth, as soft, as creame. In wch there is not torrent, nor scarce [sweam?]. Ben. Johnston.".
