ERRATA IN VOLUME I.
P. ix. See vol. v. p. 490.
P. xxiii; l. 14. For 1868 read 1368.
*P. lvii; l. 1 of Lenvoy. The unmeaning word 'destruye,' as given in the editions, should doubtless be corrected to 'deseruye,' or 'deservye'; as said in P. Toynbee's Specimens of Old French; see pp. 482-4 of that work.
P. lxii. To the list of Chaucer's metres, add: 5c = 9-line stanza, with the rimes thrice repeated; as in Womanly Noblesse (vol. iv. p. xxv). Also: 13 = 6-line stanza, ababaa; in the Envoy to the same poem.
P. 12; l. 9. This displacement was first noticed (not by Bell, but) by Tyrwhitt, in his last note on the Canterbury Tales.
P. 28. To this list of early editions of separate works of Chaucer, add:—Boethius, edited by Caxton, before 1479.

P. 39; l. 8. Delete the words—A sixth is in MS. Harl. 7333, in the British Museum.
P. 78; last line. Read is well spelt, nor is either
