Tar following Gloffary is intended to facilitate the 
reading of Chaycer, by explaining in our preſent lan- 

age ſuch of his words and money þ as are noẽ become 
difficult to be underſtood either from a total diſuſe or 
from any ſmaller alterations of arthography or inflec- 
tion. Many of thefe words and phraſes having been 
already explained in the Notes of this edition, it has 
been thought ſufficient in that caſe to refer the reader 
to thoſe Notes. For the reſt, it is hoped that this Work 
may be of uſe in removing ſome of the moſt material 
difficulties which occur not only in The Canterbury 
Tales, but alſo in the other genuine compolitions of 
Chaucer, as far as the preſent ſtate of their text makes 
it ſafe to attempt any explanation of them. 

It would be injuſtice to the learned author of the: Gloſ- 
ſary to Mr. Urry's edition ſ not to acknowledge that 
have built upon his foundations, and often with his 
materials: in particular, I have followed and have en- 
deavoured to improve upon his example, by conſtantly 
citing one or more places in which the word or phrate 
explained is to be found . Where the places cited by 
him were appoſite and ſatisfactory I have generally 
ſpared myſelf the trouble of hunting for others, with 

At the end of this Adyertiſement 1 ſhall add a ſhort account 
of what I conceive to be the genuine Forks of Chaucer, and of 
thoſe which have been either falſely aſcribed to him or impro- 
perly intermixed with his in the editions: thoſe under the two 
latter deſcriptions may be;of uſe to illuftratetheWorks of Chau- 
cer, but ſhould not be confounded with them, : | 
FNr. Timothy Thamas. See App. to the Preface, (A.) n. (u.) 

t The expediency af this practice is obvious; it enables the 
reader to apprehend more clearly the interpretation ofthe glof- 
fariſt when right, and it affords him an opportunity of correc · 
ing thoſe miſtakes to which we are all ſo exceed ingiy liable, =

this caution however; that l have not made uſe of any 
one of his references without having firſt verified it by 
actual inſpection, a caution whichevery compiler ought 
to take in all caſes, and which in the preſent caſe was 
indiſpenſably neceſſary on account of the numerous 
and groſs errours in the text of that edition * to which 
Mr. Thomas gloſſary was adapted. | 

For the further prevention of uncertaiuty and con- 
fuſion care has been taken to mark the part of ſpeech 
to which each word belongs, and to diſtribute all ho- 
monymous words into ſeparate articles f. The num- 
bers, caſes, modes, times, and other inflections of the 
declinable parts of ſpeech, are alſo marked, whenever 
they are expreſſed in a manner differing from modern 
uſage. 3 5 
| ER is ſo clearly not a neceſſary branch of 
the duty of a gloſſariſt, that I truſt I ſhall be eaſily ex- 
cuſed for not having troubled the reader with longer 
or more frequent digreſſions of that ſort: in general 
I have thought it ſufficient to mark ſhortly the origi- 
nal language from which each word is probably to be 
derived, according to the hypotheſis which has been 
more fully explained in the 2. c. part the ſecond, 

ialect, in which Chaucer

As every author muſt be allowed to be the denen 
poſitor of his oun meaning, I have always endeavour- 
ed to eſtabliſh the true import of any doubtful word 
or phraſe by the uſage of Chaucer himſelf in ſome other 
ſimilar paſſage; where it has been neceſſary to call in 
foreign aſſiſtance recourſe has been chiefly had to ſuch 
authors as wrote before him, or at leaſt were contem- 
poraty with ny in ſome part of his life. |

ately from the Latin language; the number has increaſed very 
conſiderably fince the time of Chaucer. It is obſervable that 
the verbs of this ſort are generally formed from the ple 
paſt, whereas thoſe which have come to us through France are 
as generally formed from the infinitive tnode. in referring 
words to the other two great claſſes a preciſe accuracy has not 
been attempted. The ſmall remains of the genuine Anglo- Sax - 

on language which our lexicographers have been able to col - 
lect do not furniſh authorities for a multitude of words, which 
however tnay be fairly derived from that ſource, becauſe they 
are to be found with little variation in the other collateral lan- 
guages deſcended from the Gothick ; the term Saxon there · 
fore is here uſed with ſuch a latitude as to include the Gathick 
and all its branches. At the ſame time as the Francick part of 
the French language had a common original with the Anglo- 
Saxon, it happens that ſome words may be denominated either 
French or Saxon with almoſt equal probability. In all ſuch caſes 
the final judgment is left to thoſe who have leiſure and incli- 
nation (according to our Author's phraſe, ver. 15246,) to boult 
the matter to the bren.

The proper names of perſons and places as they

Or The Canterbury Taler, the greateſt work of Chau- 
cer, it is needleſs to repeat what has been faid in dif+ 
ferent parts of this edition, particularly in the App. to 
the Preface,( A.) and in the Introductory Diſcourſe,vol:T. 
One of the earlieſt of his other Works was probably, 

I. The Romaunt of the Roſe. He ſpeaks of it himſelf 
in L. W. 329 and 441. ; it is profeſſedly a tranſlation 
of the French Roman de la Roſe, and many groſs blun- 
ders in the printed text may be corrected by compa- 
ring it with the original. Dr. Hunter was ſo obliging 
as to lend me a ml. of this poem, (the only one that 
L have ever heard of) which has occaſionally been con- 
ſulted to good advantage, but it does not ſupply any 
of the moſt material defects of the printed editions. 
II. Troilus and Greſeide, in five books. This poem is 
alſo mentioned by our Author in L. W. 332 and 441.; 
it is for the moſt part a tranſlation of the Filoſtrato of 
Boccace, but with many variations, and ſuch large ad- 
ditions, that it contains above 2700 lines more than 
its original. See the Eſay, Cc. n. 62. There are ſe- 
veral mf. of this poem in the Bodleian library and in 
the Muſeum which have been occaſionally conſulted. 

III. The Court of Love was firſt printed among the 
additions made to Chaucer's Works by John Stowe in 
the edition of 1561. One might reaſonably have ex- 
pected to find it mentioned in L. W. Joe. cit. but not- 
withſtanding the want of that teſtimony in its favour 
am induced by the internal evidence to conſider it as 
one of Chaucer's genuine productions. I have never 
heard of any ml. of this poem.

| Firſt folwe I Stace, and after him Corinne. _ 
As the opening only is taken from Statins, [1. iv. ver. 
519. we muſt ſuppoſe that Corinne furniſhed the re- 
mainder; but who Corinne was is not eaſy to gueſs. 
One can hardly ſuppoſe that Chaucer had met with 
that poem of the ancient Corinna, the contemporary 
of Pindar, which was entitled Exla «x: OnCais,[Fragm. 
ex ApollonioDyſcolo,ap. Maittair. de Dialect. p. 429, 1.4,] 
nor do I know that any fictitious work upon the war 
of Thebes has ever been ſet forth under her name. 
She is mentioned by Propertius, III. el. iii. v. 21, J and 
by Statius, [Sy/v. V. car. iii. v. 158, but neither of 
them takes notice of her having written on the affairs 
of Thebes, It ſhould be obſerved that the Arcite, 
whoſe infidelity is here complained of is quite a dif- 
ferent perſon from the Arcite of The Knightes Tale; 
from which circumſtance we may perhaps be allowed 
to inferthatthis poem was written before Chaucer had 
met with The 'Theſeida.—lt is extant in niſſ. Hart, 
372, and Bodl. Fairy. 16. g 
VI. The Afſemblee of Foules is mentioned by Chaucer 
himſelf in I.. W. 419, under the title of The Parlement 
of Foules. In ml. Bodi. Fairf. 16, it is entitled The Par- 
lement of Briddes.— I he opening of this poem is built 
upon the Somnum Scipionit of Cicero, as it appears at 
the head of Macrobius' Commentary. The deſctip-

tion of a garden and temple, from ver. 183 to ver. 287, 
is almoſt entirely taken from Boecace's deſcription of 
the temple of Venus in the 7th book of The Theſeida+ 
See the h. on ver. 1920. L have found no reaſon to re- 
tract the ſuſpicion there intimated as to the date of this 
m, nor can I confirm it by any external evidence. 
VII. The Complaint of the Black Knight, in mſſ. Boul. 
Fairf. 16, and Bodl. 638, is entitled Complaint of a Lo- 
ver Life. I do not wiſh much confidence tobe given to 
the conjecture in App. to the Pref. (C.) n. (e) that this 
poem relates to John of Gaunt. | - 
VIII. Chaucer's A, B, C, was firſt printed in Mr. 
Speght's ſecond edit. in 1602. It is ſaid in the title to 
have been compoſed at the requeſt of the Duchefle 
Blanche : if that be true it ought to be placed before 
IX. The Booke of the Ducheſſe, which Chaucer him- 
ſelf has mentioned by the title of The Deth of Blaunche 
the Ducheſſe, L. W. 418, Ser an account of this poem 
in the n. on ver. 4467. 6 
X. The Houſe of Fame is mentioned by Chaucer him- 
ſelf in I. W. 417: : it was probably written while he 
was Comptroller of the Cuſtom of Wools, and conſe- 
quently not earlier than 1374. See the paſſage from 
b. ii. quoted in the App. to the Pref. C. n. (e.) It is 
extant in mſſ. Bodl. Fairf. 16, and Bodl. 638. | 
XI. Chaucer's Dreme was firſt printed in Mr.Speght's 
edit. of his Works in 1597. Bayle ſeems to ſpeak of it 
under the title De Caffello Dominarum, lib. i, The ſup- 
poſed plan of this poem, prefixed to it by Mr. Speght, 
is a mere fancy, but there is no ground for doubting 
the authenticity of the poem itſelf, —When I imagi- 
ned that a paſſage in this Dreme fver. 1820—1926,1 
was probably copied from the lay of Elidus, [Dif- 
courſe, Fc. n. 24, J I did not recollect that the incident 
there related is very ſimilar to one in the Grecian fa-

II. The Flevt and the Lefe was alfo printed for the 
firſt time in the edit. of 2597, but 1 do not think its 


authenticity ſo clear as that of the preceding poem; 


the ſubject at leaſt is alluded to by Chaucer in L. W. 
I88—194. 


Q III T The:Legende of Geads Homes is extant in miſe. 


Baul. Arch. Seld. B. 24, and Fairf. 16. For the time of 
its compoſition ſee the on c. n. 3. See alſo the 
n. on ver. 4481. Au additional argument for believing 
that the number intended was nineteen may be drawn 


from The Court of Love, ver. 108, where, ſpeaking 1 
Alceſte, Chaucer fays— 


= To whom obeyed the Ladies gode ninetene. — 


XIV. . Complaint of Marr and Venus is ſaid, in the 


a to have been tranſlated from the French 
of Graunſon probably that Otho de Graunſon who was 
retained in the military ſervice of Richard II. with an 
annuity of 200 marks, [Pat. 17 K. II. p. 1, m. 6, ap. 
Ryser. ] Mr. Speght mentions a tradition (if I undler- 
ſtand him right) that this poem was originally made 
of the Lady Elizabeth, daughter to John of Gaunt, 
(wbom he calls King of Spaine) and her huſband the 
Lord John Holland, half-brother to Richard II. Ican- 


not ſee any thing in the poem itielf that countenances 


this particular notion, though I have little doubt that 
it was intended to deſcribe the ſituation of ſome two 
lovers under a veil of myſtical allegory. —This poem 
is extant in mil-Bod!. Arch. Seid. B. 24, and Fairf. 16. ; 
in mi. Harl. 7333 it is entitled The Broche of Thebes 
as of the Love of Mars nnd Venus, which inclines me to 
believe that itis the poem mentioned by Lydgate, and 
from him by Bayle, nich bas of late been ſuppoſed to 
be loſt. Lydgate's words are

This broche of Thebes, from which the whole poem is

idea f it ſeems to have been derived from what Statius 
has faid of the fatal necklace made by Vulcan for Har-

able note is prefixed to it, This ſeems an envoy to 
the Duke of Lancaſter after his loſs of Blanch.” — 
From the reference to The Wife of Bathe, ver. 29, 1 
ſhould ſuppoſe this to have been one of our Author's 
later compoſitions, and I find that there was a Peter 
q de Buketon, the king's Eſcheator for the county of 
- York in 1397, at. 20 N. II. p. 2, m. 3, ap. Rymer

Scottiſh nation, that the true author was Mr. Robert 
Henderſon, chief ſchoolmaſterof Dumferlin, a little

to King Henry VIII. by Mr. Thynne. I ſuppoſe the

above mentioned, but without ſuggeſting any thing 


ſo plauſible. Culvert (as it is written in the oldeſt

or oxvmper; Arbiter, Sequeſter. If the etymology of it 
were as clear we might be able to determine which 
of the two methods of writing it is the beſt; cuſtom 

has long declared for the latter. The modern word 
is umpire; and in P. P. a5, b. the editt. read -an

per. I cannot find that any ſuch word is uſed, in the 
ſame ſenſe, in any other of the Gothick or romance 
angpagess it has been ſuppoſed by ſome to be a cor- 
dion of un pere,Fr.whichl can hardly believe; and 
perhaps the reader will beas backward to admitofa 
derivation of it from the Fr. avnpair, an odd or third 
perion, which an arbitrator generally is. This how- 
ever is the moſt probable etymology that has occur- 
red to me, and 1 ſee that the compiler of the ſtatutes

Self, ſelve, adj. Sax. anſwering to the Belg. /c/f, the Fr.

ment, in the ſame moment; ver. 11706, in the ſelve

adj. ſelã, when joined to a ſubſtantive, might be con- 
firmed by the uniform practice of all our writers 
freni the earlieſt times down to Shakſpere, but 
as they are both now obſolete I chuſe rather to take 

. this opportubity of adding a few words to what has 
been ſaid in the Ey, Nc. loc. cit. upon the uſage 
of the adj. when joined to a pronoun, in which 
licht only it appears to have been, conſidered by 
Wallis, when he pronounced it a ſubſtantive, an- 
ſwering nearly do the Latin ns — Dr. Johnſon, 

in lis Dictonary, has very rightly eſtabliſhed the pri- 
mary ſigniſication of /z/f to be that of an adjective, 
but in its connex ions with pronouns he ſeems rather 
inclined to ſuppoſe it a ſubſtantive; firſt, becauſe it 
is joined to poſſeſſive or adjettive pronouns, as »y, 
thy; ber, Cc. ; and ſecondly, becauſe it has a plural 
number, /-/ves, contrary to the nature of the Engliſh 
adjective.— The latter reaſon, I think, cannot have 
much weight, when it is remembered that the uſe 
of ſelves as the plural number of /z/F has been in- 
troduced into our language ſince the time of Chau- 
cer. Selvem, which was originally the accuſative ca. 
ſing. of ſel/, is uſed by him indifferently in both num- 
bers; I my/elven; 9334; ye yonr/elven, 9380, 12676; 
he kim/elven, 4464, 9919.— The former reaſon al- 
fo will Joſe its force if the hypotheſis which I have 
ventured to propoſe in the E ay, tc. loc. cit. ſhall 
be | d, viz. that in their combinations with

N the pronouns my, thy, ber, our, your, ate not to 
6h as poſſe ve or adjedive; hut as the 
old oblique caſes of the perſoual pronouns J, thou, 
ſhe, we, ye. According to this hypotheſis the uſe of 
theſe combinations, with reſpett to the pronouns, 
is almoſt always foleciſtical, but not more ſo than 
that of him/e{f in the nominative caſe, which has 
long been authoriſed by conſtant cuſtom; and it is 
remarkable that a ſoleciſm of the ſame ſort has pre- 
vailed in the French language, in which aro; and doi, 
the abl. caſes of je and tu, when combined with mZ- 
me, are uſed as ungrammatically as our my ands 
have juſt been ſuppoſed to be when combined 
Self; Fe Fai vu moin, I have ſeen it mydelf; tu 
le verrat toi-mime, thou ſhalt ſee it thyſelf; and ſo. 
in the accuſative caſe, moi-meme is added emphati- 
cally to me, and foi- ne to fe. lt is probable, I 
think, that theſe departures from grammar in both 
| languages haue been made for the ſake of ſuller 
and more agreeable ſounds. Je-meme; me-, tu- 
meme, and te-mime, would certainly found much 
thinner and more languid than woi-meme and toi» 
meme; and myſelf, thyſelf, &c. are as clearly prefe- 
rable, in point of pronunciation, to %%%, meſelf, 
thouſelf, they, c. though not all, perhaps, in 
an equal degree. It ſhould be obſerved that ite, 
where a change of caſe in the pronoun would not 
have improved the ſound, has never r any 
alteration.

26. About the middle of the ſame century (the 13th) Vincent 


of Beauvais, in his Speculum Hifor. I. iii. c. 2, gives an account 


of Xſop, and a large ſpecimen, of his fables, quas Romulus qui - 
dam de Greco in Latinum tranfulit, et ad flium ſuum Tyberi- 
num dirigit ;. they are all,as 1 remember, i in the printed Romu- 
lus. ——=$00n after the invention of printing that larger collec- 
tion of the fables of ſop was made and publiſhed in Germa- 
ny which has been mentioned in vol. iv, p. 43. n. ʒ it is divided 
into fix books, to which is prefixed a liſe of Æſop e Græco La- 
tina per Rimicium fadu. The three firſt are compoſed ofthe ſix · 
ty elegiack fables of the metrical Aſopus, with a few trifling 
variations, and to each uf them is ſubjoined a fable on the ſame 
ſubject in proſe from Romulus; book Iv. contains the remain- 

lag fables of Romulus in proſe only. The fifth bock has not 
more than one or two fables which had ever appeared before 
under the name vf Zſop; the eſt are taken from the G Ro- 


manorum, the caah i Damnlrh; (See vol. Iv. p. 1 38, n. 4, p. 


141, n. f.] and other obicurer authors: The ſixih and laſt book 
contains ſevemteen fables with the following title, Seguuntur 
fabule move ITſopi ex tranflatione Remicii. There has been a 
great diverſity of opinion among learned men concerning this 
Remicius ot Rimicius, [SeePref,Nilant, while ſome have con: 
7 2 him with the fictitious Romulus, and others have con- 

ted him as the editor. of this collection. I have no doubt 
that the perſon-meant is that Rinucius who tranſlated the lite 
of Afop. by Planudes and ninety-fix. of his fables from the 
Greek into Latin, about the middle of the 15th century. [See
