Excerpt from Popular Fallacies in Chaucer and Donne: Two Essays

Though Chaucer speaks of himself in the Prologue to the Astrolabe as merely an ignorant translator of old astronomers, we may reasonably ascribe much of what he says to professional modesty. Indeed, in the very next sentence he tells Little Lewis, the child for whom the Astrolabe was written, that one reason he has per formed his labor is to correct some conclusions that do not work out properly from the treatises he has here tofore seen.
