  • Résumé : CCCC MS 496 is a printed book containing the 1527 edition of De legatione Basilii magni principis Moschoviae by Paulus Jovius (1483-1552). However, added to this printed material, presumably by Parker, is a copy of the De regimine principum by Thomas Hoccleve (1369?-1426?) copied by William Wilflete (d. 1470), sometime dean of Stoke by Clare College and Master of Clare College, Cambridge 1436-55. In addition, there is pasted to the back inner board of this manuscript part of a mid-twelfth-century service book, possibly from Worcester.
