[249] Le Département des Livres (Méon, N. R. i. 404):

‘A Bouvines delez Dinant

Li perdi-je Ovide le grant ...

Mon Lucan et mon Juvenal

Oubliai-je a Bonival,

Eustace le grant et Virgile

Perdi aus dez a Abeville.’

[250] The chief collections of goliardic verse are Schmeller, Carmina Burana (ed. 3, 1894), and T. Wright, Latin Poems attributed to Walter Mapes (C. S. 1841): for others cf. Hubatsch, 16. Latin was not unknown amongst lay minstrels: cf. Deus Bordeors Ribauz (Montaiglon-Raynaud, i. 3):

‘Mais ge sai aussi bien conter,

Et en roumanz et en latin.’
