Index of Middle English Verse (IMEV) 808. Will look this up and flesh out the entry when I have a chance. Marnanel 18:17, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Unless "sometime before 1500" means centuries before, this is incorrect. Chaucer used it quite openly in the Reeve's Tale in the fourteenth century. Securiger 11:53, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
How about the whole poem? Where can it be found?
Shouldn't the entry read "This poem, which is purported to be written in 1475 though not authenticated . . ." Instead of saying that it was written about 1475. Without any authentication it may well be nothing but a very clever fake. And shouldn't it delete that it is famous, since it seems to be a recent sudden appearance without any prior provenance? 64.61.221.153 ( talk) 16:55, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
