St. Paul's Cathedral Library: MS 52.D.14 (Item 5)
Commonplace book of poetic and prose extracts, begun 1696 (1696-c.1745. The flyleaf suggests that Butler acquired the manuscript in 1693 from her father. The two sections of her commonplace book (poetry and prose) each begin with the date 1696. The final item Butler compiled in the poetry section is probably taken from a printed work of 1720. The penultimate item Butler compiled in the prose section is dated 1745. Three later hands added to the volume after this.)
Katherine Butler (owner, scribe)

She might have continued until she gave the manuscript to her cousin Edward Tenison in 1714 (p. 174), though the latest dateable item in the miscellany is 1710 (see Item 6.25).)
