Excerpt from Selections From Chaucer: Including His Earlier and His Later, Verse and an Example of His Prose Edited With an Introduction and Notes
This volume is not designed primarily for those who wish to use the text of Chaucer as an introduction to the study of Middle English, but for those who wish to read and enjoy his verse as literature. Such simple essentials of grammar and prosody are, however, provided as the teacher will desire to have in convenient form for reference. N 0 course even in English - should be made easy, except with the ease that comes, attended by a sense of triumph and delight, through the discipline of persistent effort. But, in the case of Chaucer, there is every reason for deferring more elaborate presentation of what will else seem unmean ing and forbidding detail, until an awakened interest may serve to vitalize and humanize it.
