Manuscript inscriptions, possibly in multiple hands, on the title page, including, "Adam Cunynghame", at the bottom, upside down "James Bruce, writer", many flourishes, possibly the signature "Philip", two longer inscriptions, one of which seems to be a variant on "In my defence God me defend" and a longer, less legible section, as well as a few lines printed in block letters reading "In the bengining of/from on place" and "James".  The verso of the title page includes a crossed out inscription written by Harie Stuart, servitor to John Kinrose.  On page 247 "James" is written in the lower right margin.  On page 252, "Wisdom showour commes" is inscribed on the left margin.  On page 253, the name "James Irvin" is inscribed in the upper right corner.  On page 352, there are inscriptions on the left margin.
