INDEX OF AUTHORS QUOTED OR REFERRED TO.
The following is a list of the principal quotations and references made by Chaucer. Several of them were certainly made at second-hand, or were stock quotations common in note-books. The references are to the volume and page, where each passage is (usually) duly quoted or pointed out in the Notes. Thus the reference to Genesis i. 27 is pointed out in vol. v. p. 389, in the note to F 880.
Authors merely named, or referred to at second-hand, are marked with an asterisk.

The abbreviation 'E. E. T. S.' signifies the Early English Text Society; the abbreviation 'C. S.' signifies the Camden Society; and 'Ch. S.' signifies the Chaucer Society.

LIST OF MANUSCRIPTS AND OLD EDITIONS.
The various MSS. and editions collated in this edition (besides others which do not afford much help) are all duly enumerated in their proper places. It is, perhaps, advisable to say expressly, that the same symbol is often used for different MSS.; and that the same MS. is sometimes (not often) denoted by different symbols. But no confusion need arise, as this never happens with respect to the same piece. For example, in the Minor Poems, 'A.' occurs as a symbol for MS. Ashinole 59; whilst in the Legend of Good Women, the same symbol occurs for MS. Arch. Selden B. 24. Again, in the Minor Poems, MS. Arch. Selden B. 24 is denoted by the symbol 'Ar.,' but in the Legend by 'A.,' as above. All that is necessary to fix the meaning of the symbol employed is to consult the 'Introduction' to the piece under consideration. And all that need be given here is a full statement of the references to the various descriptions of the MSS.
Romaunt of the Rose; i. 11. Minor Poems; i. 48-58. Boethius; ii. xxxvii-xlvi. Troilus; ii. lxvii-lxxv. Hous of Fame; iii. xiii. Legend of Good Women; iii. xlvii-li. Astrolabe; iii. lvii-lxii. Canterbury Tales; iv. viii-xv.
Similar remarks apply to the old editions; the descriptions of them follow the descriptions of the MSS.

GENERAL LIST OF ERRATA,
INCLUDING A FEW EMENDATIONS AND ADDENDA.
The Lists of Errata already given in previous volumes are here collected, with a few emendations and additions. The length of the list is a subject of regret on my part, and is partly due to the difficulty of the work and to the attempt to give a new and improved text. A considerable number of the Errata are, however, of a very trivial nature; on which account those which seem to be of some importance are marked with a preceding asterisk.
* * * * *
ERRATA IN VOLUME I.
P. ix. See vol. v. p. 490.
P. xxiii; l. 14. For 1868 read 1368.
*P. lvii; l. 1 of LENVOY. The unmeaning word 'destruye,' as given in the editions, should doubtless be corrected to 'deseruye,' or 'deservye'; as said in P. Toynbee's Specimens of Old French; see pp. 482-4 of that work.
P. lxii. To the list of Chaucer's metres, add: 5_c_ = 9-line stanza, with the rimes thrice repeated; as in Womanly Noblesse (vol. iv. p. xxv). Also: 13 = 6-line stanza, ababaa; in the Envoy to the same poem.
P. 12; l. 9. This displacement was first noticed (not by Bell, but) by Tyrwhitt, in his last note on the Canterbury Tales.
P. 28. To this list of early editions of separate works of Chaucer, add:--Boethius, edited by Caxton, before 1479.
P. 35; l. 9. Alain Chartier, if born (as some say) as early as 1386, was fourteen years old at Chaucer's death. This does not affect the argument or the result. (Make a similar correction in note 2 on p. 28).
P. 39; l. 8. Delete the words--A sixth is in MS. Harl. 7333, in the British Museum.
P. 78; last line. Read is well spelt, nor is either
P. 80; l. 6 from bottom, for y-seen read y-seyn.
P. 95; l. 47. Insert a comma after 'oughte'
P. 98; l. 114. Omit the comma at the end of the line.
P. 126; l. 793. Delete the comma at the end of the line.
P. 127; l. 806. Delete the comma at the end of the line.
P. 135; l. 997. For shall read shal
P. 136; ll. 1015-6. Improve the punctuation thus:--
As whyt as lilie or rose in rys Hir face, gentil and tretys.
P. 136; l. 1021. Delete the comma after 'yelowe'
P. 141; l. 1154. Delete the comma after 'seide'
P. 168; l. 1962. For Bu -if read But-if
P. 176; l. 2456. For joy read Ioy
P. 190; footnotes. For 3320. read 3319.
P. 195; l. 3643. For [god it read [god it]
P. 199; footnotes. For 3852. read 3851.
P. 201; l. 4035. For the comma substitute a semicolon.
P. 227; l. 5698. For the comma substitute a semicolon.
*P. 249; l. 4035. For echerye read trecherye
P. 253; l. 7324. For weary read wery
*P. 254; l. 7392. Thynne has 'falowe'; but it is clearly an error for 'falowe.'
P. 255; l. 7437. Supply a comma at the end of the line.
P. 258; l. 7665. Insert a comma after 'helle'
P. 269; l. 145. The stop at the end should be a comma.
*P. 270; l. 163. I now think that 'suffred' is correct; but that 'his herte' has been wrongly put for 'him,' by confusion with l. 164. Moreover, 'pighte' must be an error for 'prighte'; see the Glossary. I am convinced that the right reading is--
And suffred eek, that Longius him prighte,
Compare Cant. Tales, F 418.
P. 278; l. 49. For aud read and
P. 280; l. 105. Rather, read--Ne coude she no reed but oon;
P. 282; l. 145. For Aud read And
P. 296; footnotes, last line. For fter read after
P. 301; l. 716. The comma should perhaps be a semicolon or a full stop.
P. 313; l. 1069. For 'Antilegius' read 'Antilogus,' which is a French form of 'Antilochus.' See correction below (for p. 489).
P. 326; l. 74. Perhaps 'let' should be 'lete'
P. 330; l. 206. For folke read folk
P. 338; l. 91. For Aud read And
P. 340; l. 133. For the read thee
P. 358; ll. 653, 655, 659. Perhaps read weye, seye, a-weye (with final e).
P. 362; l. 76. The final stop should be a comma.
P. 374; ll. 243, 248. For desteny and ful better forms are destinee and fulle.
P. 377; l. 328. For furlong wey read furlong-wey
P. 407; The lines are misnumbered.
P. 424; note to Rom. Rose, 923. See vol. v. 490.
P. 456; note to ll. 163, 164. It would be far better to read 'And suffred eek, that Longius him prighte.' See correction above (to p. 270).
P. 489; note to l. 1069. But the best reading is certainly 'Antilogus'; for this is the form actually used (in place of Archilochus) by Beno[^i]t de St. More; who says (in l. 20969) that 'Antilogus fu filz Nestor.'
*P. 495; note to ll. 1318-9. See vol. v. 490.
P. 496; note to l. 7 (last line). For Troil s read Troilus.
P. 557; last line. 'I take this opportunity to remark that Mr. Skeat's suggestion that olde grisel = old gray horse, is supported not only by Gower, Conf. Am. viii. ed. Pauli, iii. 356 (Olde grisel is no fole), but by bonny grisel = bonny gray horse in the ballad of Johnie Armstrong, B, st. 20; Child, III. 369.'--Prof. Kittredge, Obs. on Troilus, p. 424.
* * * * *
ERRATA IN VOLUME II.
P. xxiv; l. 6 from bottom. For alienae read alieni.
Pp. lvii-lx. These extracts from Guido may well be compared with Caxton's Recuyell of The Historyes of Troye, as reprinted by O. Sommer, pp. 604, 608, 610, 613, 633.
P. lxxvi; l. 21. For have been read has been.
I. BOETHIUS.
*P. 8; Book I, met. 4. l. 8. For thonder-light a better reading is thonder-leit; see p. xliii, and the note (p. 422).
P. 26; Book II, met. 1. l. 11. For proeueth read proeveth
P. 29; Book II, pr. 3. l. 3. Delete the comma after wherwith
*P. 48; Book II, pr. 7. l. 86. For thas read that
*P. 50; Book II, pr. 8. l. 17. For windinge read windy. See pp. xlii, 434.
P. 58; Book III, pr. 3. l. 68. For all read al
P. 62; l. 4. Counted as l. 10; it is really l. 9.
P. 63; Book III, pr. 5. l. 41. For of read of (in italics).
*P. 74; Book III, pr. 10. l. 6. For has read hast
P. 122; Book IV, met. 6. l. 24. Delete the square brackets; see pp. xlii, xliii.
*P. 124; Book IV, pr. 7. l. 61. MS. C has confirme; and MS. A has conferme. But the right reading must be conforme; since the Latin text has conformandae. (Thynne has conserue.)
II. TROILUS.
P. 159; Book I. 204. For cast read caste
P. 160; Book I. 217. The alternative reading is better; see note, p. 463.
P. 160; Book I. 239. For yet read yit (for the rhyme).
P. 162; Book I. 284. For neuer read never
P. 163; Book I. 309. For Troylus read Troilus
P. 163; Book I. 310. For thyng read thing

P. 166; Book I. 406. For thurst read thurste
*P. 166; Book I. 420. For deye read dye (for the rhyme).
P. 171; Book I. 570. For euery read every
P. 172; Book I. 621. For Troylus read Troilus

P. 177; Book I. 766. Alter ? to a comma (C.S.)
P. 181; Book I. 879. For the read thee
P. 187; Book I. 1074. For tho read the (suggested by C. Stoffel). H2. Ed. the; Cl. H. tho (which is remarkable); Cm. omits the line.
P. 192; Book II. 113. Delete ' at the end.
P. 194; Book II. 170. Insert ' at the beginning.
P. 200; Book II. 358. Delete the comma at the end (C. Stoffel).
P. 205; Book II. 529. For penaunc read penaunce
P. 208; Book II. 628. For swych read swich
*P. 223; Book II. 1108. Perhaps read--And she to laughe, &c. 'Is it not better to consider and she to laughe as a case of Infinitivus historicus? Cf. the French--"Ainsi dit le renard, et flatteurs d'applaudir." Examples of the like are not unheard-of in M.E. M[:a]tzner (III. 51) quotes from P. Plowman, A. 33: "And summe murthhes to make as munstrals cunne, And gete gold with here gle." And from Layamon, II. 485: "Ah Arthur com sone mid selere strengthe, and Scottes to fleonne feor of tham aerde." I have myself noted the following: Caxton, Reynard the Fox, ed. Arber, 26: "(he) folewed me cryeng kylle and slee hym; I to goo and they after, and many moo cam after which alle thought to hurte me."'--C. Stoffel.
If this be right, we may consider the auxiliary verb gan, or its equivalent, as being understood before the expressed gerund. And we may as well explain to go in the same way, as found in the Legend of Good Women, 653. See further To-ga (better to ga?) in my glossary to Barbour's Bruce.
P. 229; Book II. 1294, Insert ' at the beginning.
P. 234; Book II. 1461. For streyt read streght, as in MS. H.
P. 260; Book III. 522. Delete the comma after laft
P. 260; Book III. 535. For made read mad or maad
P. 261; Book III. 558. For lengere read lenger
P. 264; Book II. 662. For thondre read thonder
P. 266; Book III. 715. For murthe read mirthe
P. 271; Book III. 885. For ringe read ring
*P. 282; Book III. 1219. For sweet read swete
P. 312; Book IV. 318. For to the peyne read to my peyne
P. 318; Book IV. 502. Alter the final comma to a semicolon.
*P. 339; Book IV. 1171. For wrong, and seyde read wronge, and seyd
P. 344: Book IV. 1297. For goinge read going
*P. 344; Book IV. 1323. For Thal read That
*P. 390; Book V. 1039. For she read he. Cf. note, p. 499; and p. lx. l. 3.
P. 392; Book V. 1109; footnote. For est read the est
P. 405; Book V. 1494. For told read tolde
P. 424, l. 4. For alienae read alieni
P. 431; note to prose 5, 35; l. 3. Delete for which I find no authority. Peiper gives the reading postremo, but from one MS. only; most MSS. give the reading postremae, as in Obbarius, who does not recognise postremo.
P. 463; note to Book I. 217. Add--So too in Barbour's Bruce, i. 582: 'Bot oft failyeis the fulis thocht.' Moreover, this very passage is quoted in the Test. of Love, bk. ii. c. 8, thus:--'all daye faileth thinges that fooles wende.'
P. 478; note to Book III. 674. See additional note at p. 506.
P. 479; note to Book III. 797. 'That Horaste = Orestes, is evident from Gower's Conf. Amantis, bk. iii (I. 352), where the forms Horestes and Horest (elided) occur. Chaucer merely uses the name without intending an allusion to the classical Orestes.'--G. L. Kittredge, Observations on the language of Troilus, p. 347.
*P. 479, last line; and p. 480, first line. For represents the Pers ... karn, horn--read represents the Arab, z[=u]'lkarnayn, lit. two-horned; from Arab. z[=u], lord of, hence, possessing, and the dual form of karn, horn.
Notes to Book I. 948, 951; II. 36, 1335; III. 1219. Dr. K[:o]ppel has shewn (in Archiv f[:u]r das Studium der neueren Sprachen, xc. 150) that Chaucer here quotes from Alanus de Insulis, Liber Parabolarum (as printed in Migne, Cursus Patrologicus, vol. ccx). The passages are:--
Fragrantes uicina rosas urtica perurit (col. 582).
Post noctem sperare diem, post nubila solem, Post lacrimas risus laetitiamque potes (583).
Mille uiae ducunt homines per saecula Romam (591).
De nuce fit corylus, de glande fit ardua quercus (583).
Dulcius haerescunt humano mella palato, Si malus hoc ipsum mordeat ante sapor (592).
P. 482; note to Book III. 1417. The explanation by G. Douglas, that Fortuna maior refers to Jupiter, is probably incorrect. It is far more likely that Chaucer adopted the phrase from Dante, Purg. xix. 4. Fortuna maior was a figure in geomancy (cf. note to Cant. Tales, A 2045, in vol. v. pp. 82, 83); and this figure was like four points (or stars) arranged in a square, with two more points below it (like a four of diamonds above a two of the same).
Fortuna Maior. Fortuna Minor. * * * * * * * * * * * *
The name was also bestowed upon a group of six stars that formed a figure roughly resembling the same, though one of the stars (as it were at the top left-hand corner) is a little out of place. These stars are described by the commentators on Dante as being situate in the end of the sign of Aquarius and the beginning of Pisces; and answer (sufficiently well) to the stars now named [theta] Pegasi, [alpha] Aquarii, [pi] and [gamma] Aquarii, and lastly, [zeta] and [eta] Aquarii. For help as to this matter I am indebted to Sir R. Ball; also, for the reference to Dante (which Cary long ago noticed), to Mr. A. J. Butler. See my letter in The Academy, Nov. 3, 1894, p. 352.
P. 488; note to Book IV. 506. Delete Troilus speaks as if dead already. The fact is, that slowe is in the subjunctive mood. It means--'Well wot I that, whilst I lived in peace, I would have given thee hire (i.e. a bribe), ere thou shouldst have slain me.'
P. 498; note to Book IV. 744. Add--Cf. Dante, Purg. xxix. 132.
P. 498; note to Book V. 806. Add--Line 813 is due to Dares; see p. lxiv, note.
P. 499; note to Book V. 1039; l. 6. For the rest is Chaucer's addition read the statement that she gave it to Diomede is due to Beno[^i]t; see p. lxii. Again, just below, read The incidents of the 'broche' and 'pensel' are also due to the same; see p. lxii.

P. xiii. l. 13. For 1883 read 1888.
P. xxxix. l. 8. The story of Hypsipyle is given at length in the Romance of Jason, as told by Raoul le Fevre in French, about 1409. Perhaps he and Chaucer drew the story from some common French source.
P. 11; l. 339. Read Anoon, as we have yow receyved,
P. 13; l. 399. We learn, from Troilus, i. 654, that Chaucer supposed 'O[:e]none' to have four syllables. This restores the metre. Read:--And Paris to O[:e]none;

P. 251; note to l. 359. This pentameter is quoted at the end of Caxton's Recuyell of the Historyes of Troye; where it is the 10th line of a set of verses beginning--'Pergama flere volo, fata Danais data solo.' The editor (O. Sommer) says (p. lxxxvii) that the lines belong to the Ilias of Simon Ch[`e]vre d'Or. He says, further, that they are ascribed by Leyser to Hildebert, Bishop of le Mans in 1097; but this seems to be wrong. The verses quoted by Caxton do not appear in Leyser's collection, and do not agree with the lines there assigned to Hildebert.
P. 261; note to H. F. 859. Compare Cant. Tales, F 726.

A translation (by myself) of the poem there mentioned appeared in The Academy, Sept. 15, 1894, p. 195; and a full account of it in the same, Sept. 1, 1894, p. 153.

P. 113. GODDESSE, l. 2. In his Observations on Troilus, p. 424, Prof. Kittredge rejects the explanation of goddes in 16. 15 by 'goddess'; and argues that it is merely the pl. of god. 'All the seven gods (l. 3) may be regarded as feeling the blasphemy against one of their number; or if this will not do, this goddes may perhaps refer to Cupid and Venus.' Of course this can mean 'these'; but, if the form be plural, I would rather read the goddes, as in the rest, than this goddes (or goddis), as in MS. F.
P. 127. HIERDESSE, l. 2. Prof. Kittredge, in his Observations on Troilus, p. 424, decisively rejects the interpretation of hierdes in T. iii. 619 as 'female guardian' or 'protectress.' (This is Tyrwhitt's explanation, and it seemed to me plausible.) However, Prof. Kittredge says--'Hierdes = "shepherds" or "herdsmen" (bestes in the next verse carries out the figure); the influences of the stars are apostrophized as well as Fortune, whence the plural, which may refer either (a) to Fortune and influences, or (b) to influences alone. The latter interpretation is perhaps better.'

NOTES.
[1] There can be no harm in stating the simple fact, that a long and intimate acquaintance, extending over many years, with the habits and methods of the scribes of the fourteenth century, has made me almost as familiar with the usual spelling of that period as I am with that of modern English.
It is little more trouble to me to write a passage of Chaucer from dictation than one from Tennyson. It takes me just a little longer, and that is all. In Fragments B and C of the Romaunt, many fifteenth-century spellings have been retained.
[2] See my paper on this subject, printed for the Chaucer Society. Prof. Herford has drawn attention to an unlucky misprint in vol. i. p. 80, where I speak of the pp. of the verb to see as y-seen. Of course I meant y-seyn; see the Glossarial Index. He further remarked, quite correctly, that Chaucer never employs the form seen or y-seen, nor ever rimes it with words in -een. Yet this very form, unknown to Chaucer, occurs thrice in Fragment B, viz. in ll. 3066, 4461, 5571; and in each case it rimes with been. This is a strong hint to those who can appreciate it. A highly characteristic word in Fragment B is dool, in the sense of 'grief'; so also is grete, to weep. But I have no space here to continue the argument. The form sloo, to slay, and other peculiarities suggest that the original dialect of Fragment B was not pure Northumbrian, but Lincolnshire or North East Midland.
[3] For example, l. 4690 of the Romaunt is called l. 4693 in Morris's edition; whilst Book IV of Troilus begins, in the same edition, in the wrong place.
[4] This is the real reason why it was necessary to retain the unauthorised order of the Groups introduced by Dr. Furnivall (see vol. iii. p. 434). To initiate yet another mode of reference would have caused much inconvenience.
[5] The following are some of the more remarkable blunders in the old text. 196. myscoueiting. 274. wo omitted; no sense. 379. er omitted; no sense. 442. ay (for shal). 444. grace (!); for face. 567. Two syllables short. 773. hem omitted. 1007. And for As was; no sense. 1018. wyntred; no such word. 1058. prile for prikke; there is no such word. 1089. durst; for thurte. 1187. sarlynysh (!). 1201. gousfaucoun (!). 1281. And she (!); for Youthe; corrected by Ten Brink. 1313. loreyes; no such word. 1334. Mere nonsense. 1369. Parys (!); for paradise. 1399. it omitted. 1447. garden (!); for yerde in. 1453. goodmesse (!); for good mes (see 3462). 1591. entrees (!); for estres. 1608. laughyng (!); for loving. 2285. Farce; for Fard. 2294. knowith (!); for lauhwith or laughith. 2301. pleyneth; for pleyeth. 2236. londes (!); for Loues. 2650. whider (!); for weder. 3337. cherisaunce; for chevisaunce. 3693-8. Though for Thought; rennyng for rewing; come for to me; the merest nonsense. 4322. wente aboute (!); for wende ha bought; (corrected by Kaluza). 4358. in omitted; no sense. 4366. charge; for change. 4372. MS. yone wole; Th. you wol; for yon wal. 4478. Imperfect. Many more errors, of less consequence, might be added to the list.
[6] Roundel 1 has sustene, kene, grene, quene, sene. In sust[=e]ne, the long e is close (Ten Brink, Chaucers Sprache, p. 48); the A.S. words are c[=e]ne, gr[=e]ne, cw[=e]n(e), ges[=e]ne, all with close e. Roundel 2 has l[=e]ne, b[=e]ne, m[=e]ne, cl[=e]ne, all with A.S. [=ae] or [=e]a. Also m[=e]ne, of French origin, with open [=e]; Ten Brink, p. 49.
[7] There is no such word as mena. Critics seem to think that In mena means 'in the middle'; but nothing can be more absurd than to decline a French adjective like a Latin one.
[8] The 'slips' on which the glossaries to these works were written were preserved, and have all been incorporated into the Glossarial Index in the present volume.
[9] Treatise on the Astrolabe; Prologue, l. 43 (vol. iii. p. 176).
[10] I have been courteously provided with proof-sheets from time to time; but my text of Troilus had already been prepared before I was able to make any real use of them.
[11] Chiefly prepared by Miss Gunning and Miss Wilkinson; with liberal additions by Mr. J. H. Hessels, who assisted me in the revision.
[12] The Glossaries to William of Palerne and Havelok were originally prepared by Sir F. Madden, and very well done. We also owe to the same editor a full and satisfactory glossary to Layamon.
[13] In A. 4172, thair occurs, in avowed imitation of the Northern dialect; yet in the line above we find hem instead of them.
[14] For references, see the Glossary.
[15] We even find the double form knittinge, knettinge in Boethius, where there are no rimes to influence the word-form.
[16] Cf. dint of thonder, HF. 534; but, as dint is not a riming word, it may be put for dent.
[17] Hence, in D 51, we should read senne (the Kentish form), to rime with brenne.
[18] Here the standard English thrust is really Southern. We also find thraste, C 260; but this is from A.S. thr[=ae]stan.
[19] I also frequently employ ([`e][`e]) for open long e; and (['e]['e]) for close long e, especially in the Glossary. It is also often usual to employ [e,] for the open e, and [o,] for the open o. Thus (ae) = ([`e][`e]) = ([e,][e,]); and (ee) = (['e]['e]).
[20] It is well known that the mod. E. delight is falsely spelt. The M.E. is delyt (O.F. delit). It rimes with parfyt, appetyt, whyt (see Glossary); never with right or bright.
[21] When the Anglo-French scribes discarded the A.S. symbol ae, they had no certain symbol for the sound (ae) left. Hence, probably, the occasional use of the form thet, to denote the A.S. thaet.
[22] Dr. Sweet gives the sound (ai), as in G. m_ei_n. But he adds: 'The distinction between ai and ei, as in day and wey, was probably still kept up in Chaucer's pronunciation, but the two diphthongs were beginning to be confused, probably through the a of ai being modified nearly to the sound of our vowel in man.' However, the rimes prove that Chaucer never distinguishes between them at all; and I believe these diphthongs had been confused much earlier. The Anglo-French scribes could have known but little difference; since ai had already become F. open e in the later text of the Chanson de Roland. Again, Norse only exhibits ei, not ai, so that our raise was M.E. reise, also written raise (Icel. reisa). Very significant is Chaucer's rime of eyse with reyse, D 2101. Nearly everywhere else, the mod. E. 'ease' is spelt ese, eese; and the pronunciation was unquestionably ([`e][`e].z[*e]) = (ae.z[*e]), as it rimes with please and appease, words in which even the mod. E. spelling with ea shews that the long e was once open. It follows that reyse was (rei.z[*e]) or even (r[`e][`e].z[*e]); certainly not (rai.z[*e]). So again, I should say that the statement that the a of ai was 'modified nearly to the sound of our vowel in man' might have been much more strongly asserted. In such a word as day, from A.S. daeg, the a was already (ae) at the first, and needed no modification at all. It was already spelt dei before A.D. 1200; see Specimens of O. English, ed. Morris, Pt. i. p. 20, l. 79.
[23] In sonne, the n is double; but not in sone.
[24] I use italic y for the consonantal sound of y in ye; because I use (y) for the vowel u in Iuge (jy.g[*e]).
[25] I do not here distinguish between primary and secondary accents. For this distinction, see below (s. 98).
[26] Mod. E. to soar, O.F. essorer, Low Lat. *exaurare; so that the long open o is due to Lat. au.
[27] Store has the o from Lat. au; cf. instaurare. And radevore is from F. ras de Vaur, with o from au; correctly.
[28] I omit dore, door, riming with underspore; perhaps the o was here (u); cf. A.S. duru.
[29] Similarly, in Fragment A of the Romaunt, we find r['o]te riming with sw['o]te, 1025, 1661; and, on the other hand, thr[`o]tes riming with harl[`o]tes, n[`o]tes, 191, 507. By way of a glaring contrast, note the rime abood (ab[`o][`o]d) with wood (w['o]['o]d) in Fragment B of the Romaunt, l. 3159.
[30] Theoretical forms are denoted, in philology, by a prefixed asterisk.
[31] An apparent exception occurs in A.S. c[=e]ace, Anglian c[=e]ce, M.E. ch[=e]ke, mod. E. cheek; with unstable [=e]. Its [=e]a is unusual, and due to the preceding c. The Du. form kaak shews that its vowel really answers to Germanic [=ae], Goth. [=e].
[32] As already noted above; p. xxiv.
[33] Sp[=e]re, with close long e, means 'sphere.' It makes all the difference to the sense as well as to the rime.
[34] Whatever test be applied to Fragment B of the Romaunt, the result is always the same, viz. always against its genuineness. Thus it has the rime cl[`e]ne, gr['e]ne, 2127; and actually s['e]['e]n, cl[`e][`e]n(!), 2921; cl[`e]n-e being always dissyllabic in Chaucer.
[35] Nede once occurs as need, riming with h[`e][`e]d, head, B. Duch. 1253.
[36] For clear examples of a contrary practice, cf. the rimes gr['e]ne, cl[`e]ne, Compl. of the Blk. Knight, 125; Flower and the Leaf, 289; Rom. Rose (B), 2127; w['e]ne, l[`e]ne, Rom. Rose, 2683.
[37] There once rimes with dere, adj., Legend, 1870. See note 39 below.
[38] Were twice rimes with dere, adj., B. Duch. 773, Clk. Ta., E 882. See note 39 below.
[39] Dere usually has close e (A.S. d[=e]ore); but it also rimes with there, were; see notes 37, 38 above, and cf. A.S. d[=y]re.
[40] Or we may read Mercuri', mury', mari'd, tari'd, beri'd, to-scater'd, contr['a]ry', and so on.
[41] MSS. E. Hn. Ln. have Dauit, but it is a childish alteration; of course David is meant. Hl. Cp. Pt. have Dauid.
[42] Better written ones only three lines below; nothing is gained by making words rime to the eye.
[43] The frequent use of o for short u (cf. A.S. duru) by Anglo-French scribes is a source of some trouble to the student.
[44] See vol. i. p. 93, French text, ll. 1-4; p. 94, ll. 19, 33; p. 95, l. 44; &c.
[45] I only cite the pages; all in vol. ii.
[46] All of the alleged exceptions are easily explained by remembering that Gower habitually used Kentish forms. Thus the Kentish for minde is mende; it therefore rimes with ende, wende. The Kentish for pit is pet (still in use), which rimes with let, set. The Kentish for hilles is helles, which rimes with elles. Hid is Kent. hed, riming with fled. Sin is Kent. senne, riming with kenne. Lesseth (Gow. iii. 12) should be lisseth, gives relief; cf. iii. 82, l. 19. It does not appear that Gower is wrong in a single instance.
[47] Correctly printed hedde in Chalmers' British Poets, ii. 67. Pauli's edition is a sad snare.
[48] When writing in French, Gower rimes loisir with obeir; in Balade XXXIV (quoted by Warton).
[49] For is wente read his wente, i.e. his path. This is all that is needed to restore the sense. Wente is a sb., not a pp.
[50] It occurs in no MS. but F.; and the writing in F. (in this passage) is quite late, and of no authority.
[51] Quite 180, in my opinion, if not more; about 4 in every 100 lines. Surely a large percentage.
[52] Chatterton added two lines to Chaucer's stanza, one of the usual length, and the second an Alexandrine. This ten-line stanza occurs in his Battle of Hastings.
[53] Every student of Old French poetry of the fourteenth century must be aware that none of Machault's Balades (in Tarb['e]'s edition) have envoys; and that a large number were written, without envoys, by Froissart, Eustache Deschamps, and Christine de Pisan. Besides, Chaucer introduces a Balade into his Legend of Good Women, which could not have had an Envoy, from the nature of the case; there was no one to address it to.
[54]
'Why will ye suffre than that I thus spille, And for no maner gilt but my good wille?' vol. i. p. 364.
[55]
'For I am set on yow in swich manere That, thogh ye never wil upon me rewe,' &c.; vol i. p. 363.
[56]
'So desespaired I am from alle blisse'; vol. i. p. 360.
[57] And yet again, but with repeated rimes, in his Womanly Noblesse; see vol. iv. p. xxv.
[58] The word virelai was taken to mean a lay with a veer or turn in it, owing to a false etymology. The original word was, however, vireli, and the true formula for it was very different. See P. Toynbee, Spec. of Old French, pp. lix. 301. Cf. Ballades, Rondeaus, &c., edited by Gleeson White, London, 1887; p. lxxvi.
[59] The references are, generally, to the Canterbury Tales; A 50 = Group A l. 50.
[60] The forms within parenthesis express the pronunciation, according to the symbols explained above. Cf. Ten Brink, Chaucers Sprache, s. 256.
[61] The Glossary has purposely been made very full in order to save references here and elsewhere. Thus ende occurs, finally, in A 15; in the middle of B 481; also in A 197, where the final vowel is slight, but should just be sounded.
[62] Sometimes written -is.
[63] But never peyn for peyne, as in Rom. Rose, 2912, 3184, 3574, 3772, 4323, 4444, 4930; Flower and Leaf, 62.
[64] The prefix y- is not counted as a syllable in this case; y-shette is the same as shette.
[65] The Ellesmere MS. has hise as the plural form; but it is monosyllabic.
[66] In speaking to one person, thou and ye are frequently confounded. Hence in the imperative, the singular and plural forms are frequently confounded also.
[67] See the long list of 183 strong verbs, with an alphabetical index, in Morris's Specimens of English, Part I; Introduction, p. lxix.
[68] But amb, and, ang become omb, ond, ong; hence clomb, &c.
[69] Note the infin. answer-y, short for answer-i-en.
[70] The Glossary (s.v. Ben) gives 'Be, 1 pr. s. am, 3. 588.' This is an oversight; be is here the infinitive = 'to be.'
[71] 'The air that is supplied for the production of the voice-vibrations is capable of being used only in volumes or jets; or, if we attend to the force used in producing them, in pressures.... The law of monopressures, as it may be termed, is a law that operates, and must operate, in the process of articulation. Speech is possible only in monopressures.... One inhalation may suffice for several monopressures. One full breath may suffice, for one who is an expert in husbanding the vocal current, for 30, 60, or even 80 monopressures. Each of these, however, is a vocalised jet of air, condensed and made vocal by a separate effort of the will, just as each note, in a tune rapidly played on the pianoforte, is produced by a special touch, however slight.'--From Accent and Rhythm, explained by the law of Monopressures. Part I. Edinburgh, 1888; an anonymous work, which deserves to be better known.
[72] These symbols are somewhat varied from those employed by the author of 'Accent and Rhythm,' whom I have quoted in the last note (p. lxxxiv.). I owe to him the idea of using them.
[73] See, on this subject, the essay by M. Freudenberger, Ueber das Fehlen des Auftakts in Chaucers heroischem Verse; Erlangen and Leipzig, 1889. I may claim to have been the first to notice this peculiarity, viz. in the Aldine edition of Chaucer, by Dr. Morris, 1866; i. 174.
[74] On the other hand, Lydgate did not shrink from these unmelodious forms. We find form 13 in: 'Up he roos | maugre all' his foon'; Storie of Thebes, 1149; in Spec. of Engl. pt. III. ed. Skeat.
[75] More strictly, as marked in the Ellesmere MS., the caesura really falls earlier, so that 'Ginglen' stands alone; see below, s. 107.
[76] Ten Brink quotes many instances of elision, where there is no need for it; thus the -e in wonne (A 59) comes at the caesura, and should be kept.
[77] The e is very light; cf. mod. E. so stately.
[78] Cf. J'r['u]sal[`e]m, A 463, D 495. Not J['e]rwsal[`e]m, with w as a consonant, as Ten Brink suggests; such a pronunciation is practically impossible.
[79] The e in p['a]rishe is suppressed, by the position of the accent on the a (s. 111); it is not really elided.
[80] It is worth while to place the two stanzas in juxta-position. I accordingly quote them here.
Lady! thy bountee, thy magnificence, Thy vertu, and thy grete humilitee Ther may no tonge expresse in no science; For som-tyme, lady, er men praye to thee, Thou goost biforn of thy benignitee, And getest us the light, thurgh thy preyere, To gyden us un-to thy sone so dere. (B. 1664.)
Assembled is in thee magnificence With mercy, goodnesse, and with swich pitee That thou, that art the sonne of excellence, Nat only helpest hem that preyen thee, But ofte tyme, of thy benignitee, Ful frely, er that men thyn help biseche, Thou goost biforn, and art hir lyves leche. (G. 50.)
[81] Seneca is often quoted as the author of maxims or proverbial sayings, really found in Publilius Syrus and Caecilius Balbus.
[82] St. Augustine's story found its way into the Gesta Romanorum.
