22 Edition 23. General Prologue 623-650 24 

Tukked he was as is a Frere aboute
And euere he rood the hyndreste of oure route
625
A Somonour was ther with vs in that place

That hadde a fyr reed Cherubynnes face
For Sawceflewm he was with eyen narwe
And hoot he was and lecherous as a Sparwe
With scaled browes blake and pyled berd
630
Of his visage children weere aferd

Ther nas quyk siluer lytarge ne Brymstoon
Borace Ceruce ne Oille of Tartre noon
Ne oynement that wolde clense and byte
That hym myghte helpen of his whelkes whyte

Nor of the knobbes sittynge on his chekes

Wel loued he garlek oynons and eek lekes
And for to drynke strong wyn reed as blood
Thanne wolde he speke and crye as he were wood
C
And whan that he wel dronken hadde the wyn

Than wolde he speke no word but latyn
A fewe termes hadde he two or thre
640
That he hadde lerned out of som decree

No wonder is he herde it al the day
C
And eek ye knowen wel how that a Iay

Kan clepen watte as wel as kan the Pope
But who so koude in oother thyng hym grope
645
Thanne hadde he spent al his philosophie

Ay Questio quid iuris wolde he crye
He was a gentil harlot and a kynde
A bettre felawe sholde men noght fynde
He wolde suffre for a quart of wyn
650
A good felawe to haue his concubyn

Only Hg and one other manuscript (Bo2) omit this couplet. That these lines are so widely distributed in the textual tradition indicate that they were present in the archetype and their style and humour suggest they are Chaucerian. (Barbara Bordalejo and Peter Robinson, Jun 29, 2026, 08:43)

knowen: Hg has "knowe" with Gg Ha4, against Ch El "knowen". The Ch El reading is supported within o (Bo2) and high in cd (Cp La) and the extra syllable gives a more regular line. (Barbara Bordalejo and Peter Robinson, Jul 3, 2026, 05:18)
