Huntington Library: Hastings Literature Box 1, Folder 6
Prayers, biblical extracts, and meditations, 1633 (1633. This copy was presented to a later Elizabeth Hastings, Countess of Huntingdon (the wife of the seventh earl; the author of the manuscript was the wife of the fifth earl) on 20 July 1676, but the manuscript itself was copied by the same scribal hand which copied out the other three copies of this work. Two of those other copies are dated 1633, the year of the writer's death, and so 1633 must be the date of transcription. Hastings may have compiled the materials in the manuscript years earlier. )

Huntington Library: Hastings Religious Box 2, Folder 8
Prayers, biblical extracts, and meditations, 1633 (1633. The manuscript may have been dated 1633 on fol. 1r, just as two other copies of the volume are (HM 15369 and EL 6871), but the leaf has been torn right where the date would be. On the other hand, the manuscript which it most resembles in terms of the order of its contents (Hastings Literature, Box, 1, Folder 6) does not list the date 1633 on fol. 1r and so perhaps this manuscript omitted it as well. It is highly likely that since all four manuscripts are in the same scribal hand, all of them were transcribed in 1633, the year of Hastings's death. Hastings may have compiled the materials in the manuscript years earlier.)
