The complete works of John Gower, volume 4 - John Gower

[819] Dr. Stubbs says that the earls of Worcester and Wiltshire were appointed to represent the clergy on this commission, as on that mentioned Rot. Parl. iii. 360, which consists of the same persons; but the official record is as given above, and the commission afterwards acted on its powers without requiring the presence of either of these two lords (Rot. Parl. iii. 369).

GLOSSARY

The Glossary is not intended as a complete record of Gower’s Latin vocabulary. It is a list of words which are unclassical in form or usage, or seem to present some difficulty, with select references and occasional explanations. Regular differences of spelling, such as e for ae and ci for ti are passed over without notice. The Roman numbers without letters prefixed indicate books of the Vox Clamantis, Ep. stands for the Epistola at the beginning of the volume, C. T. for Cronica Tripertita, V. P. for Carmen super multiplici Viciorum Pestilencia, L. S. for Tractatus de Lucis Scrutinio, and the other pieces are represented by their opening words. A few references only are given, and common usages are illustrated chiefly from the first book of the Vox Clamantis.
