1565-ca. 1610 (SteudeMS). The original owner was Clemens Haineck of Borna (near Leipzig), who presumably gave the manuscript to his son Martin Haineck (= Hayneccius), rector of the Fürstenschule St. Augustin at Grimma from 1588 to 1610. After Martin's death (1611), the manuscript was placed in the school's library; in 1890 it was deposited at the library in Dresden.
