[226] Gascoigne, Loci ex Libro Veritatum, ed. J. E. Thorold Rogers, p. 202. The editor on the passage says: "They (i.e. the students) come from all parts of Europe.

This concourse of students was diverted by the great plague. . . . I see no reason to doubt the statement about the exceeding populousness of Oxford in the first half of the 14th century."
