Ownership inscription attributed, probably in error, to Heinsius
According to a ms. note in this volume, this is the ownership inscription of Heinsius ("Ton 'Einsius"). Heinsius could be either Daniel Heinsius (1580-1655), classical scholar and librarian of Leiden University Library or his son Nicolaas Heinsius (1620-1681) a Dutch philologist and poet and book collector whose large library was auctioned after his death with a catalog "Bibliotheca Heinsiana, sive, Catalogus librorum, quos magno studio & sumtu, dum viveret, collegit" (1682). The same edition of this work (Gnōmologiai palaiotatōn poiētōn) is listed on p. 75 of the " Bibliotheca Heinsiana" (Cf. books.google.com/books?id=P2Y7AAAAcAAJ&printsec=front... )
To complicate matters Harvard records that their copy of this title held at Houghton Library (OCLC #613850347) was owned by Nicolaas Heinsius and bears his ownership mark: Ex Biblioth. Heinsii Lugduni Batauor. CD D C LXXXIII. Other than the "Ton "Einsius" title page marking there are no other marks of ownership suggesting a Heinsius provenance nor does this copy have annotations. For these reasons it is not clear that this copy was actually owned by Heinsius unless there were 2 copies sold.
Perhaps the marking refers to a different Heinsius altogether or is simply a note stating that he (Nicolaas) owned a copy of this work.
