On the last page, under the censor inscription is a Hebrew inscription, whose English translation is: I have purchased this from the heirs of the honorable, wealthy and prominent Mordechai Puijetto of blessed memory, in the year [5]364 [=1604 C.E.] Puijetto has a variant Hebrew spelling in the Israel Ntl Library catalogue, which approximates Pugetti.

Hebrew books printed in Venice were bought not just by Jews, but also by Christian Hebraists - who learned Hebrew in order to study in the original language the Jewish texts.
