Pages : 28
Book Description
Excerpt from A New Ploughman's Tale: Thomas Hoceleve's Legend of the Virgin and Her Sleeveless Garment; With a Spurious Link The two additional stanzas at the beginning of the Prologue in the Christ Church ms. Indicate an author other than Hoccleve, and so relieve him of the blame (or praise) that might attach to him as one of those who, like John Lydgate and John Lane, attempt to fit one of their own poems into the scheme of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. The lines are readily seen to be made up of four feet, for the most part, though some of them can be read as five-foot lines. The form of the verse seems. Decisive against their having been written by Hoccleve it rather points to some clumsy versifier who, for some reason or other, furnished the Ploughman with this pious Tale and wrote these stanzas as a Link, in imitation of some of the genuine Chaucer Tales.
