Edition Notes
Extra pages 200a-200b inserted after p. 200.
Published by the Chaucer Society, in 1887. The present edition, printed from a cast of the Chaucer Society's plates, includes the t.-p. of the 1887 edition: Supplementary Canterbury tales. [1] The tales of Beryn ... Re-edited ... by F.J. Furnivall and W.G. Stone [etc.]
Includes notes by F.J. Vipan.
A continuation of the Canterbury tales, "obviously by a later hand," first printed by Urry in the 1721 Chaucer, as the "Merchant's second tale," and included in several later editions; but from the first generally regarded as spurious. The tale is identical with the first part of a French prose romance: L'histoire du chevalier Bérinus. The English abstract of the original has title: The merchant and the rogues. It is a free translation from the abstract, by Bricaire de la Dixmerie in Mélanges tirés d'une grande bibliothèque, Paris, t. VIII, p. 225-277.
