‘THE MINOR POEMS’ IN VOL. I.
* * * * *
[Further researches have brought to light some more of Chaucer’s Minor
Poems. I first met with the excellent Balade on ‘Womanly Noblesse’ in MS.
Phillipps 9030 (now MS. Addit. 34360) on June 1, 1894; and on the following
day I noticed in MS. Harl. 7578 (partly described in vol. i. p. 58) two
Complaints that may perhaps be attributed to our author. As, from the
nature of the case, they could not be included in Vol. i, they are inserted
here.]
