every one of The Canterbury Tales. This is said to be the only known work printed by Godfray with a date to it. It contains many spurious works attributed to Chaucer, but not The Plowman's Tale. This, which I shall call No. 1, is evidently the first edition of Chaucer's complete works collected by William Thynne in 1532.

There are also in the Museum two copies of an edition printed in 1542, both exactly alike, although attributed to different printers. One of these is a beautiful copy in the Grenville collection, printed by Bonham, a black-letter folio with double columns, having the printer's name on the title-page. The title is like that of No. 1, and is included within a compartment representing an arched window pane with a semi-circular top, and at the bottom, "prynted by Wyllyam Bonham dwellynge in Paules Churcheyarde at the sygne of the Kynges Armes, 1542" There are fifty-one lines to each full column, 372 leaves, and illustrations similar to those in No. 1. The compartment of the title-page is repeated before every principal poem, and it contains the letters "W. R.," showPunch Wooden Effigies - Pilling that it once belonged to the printer Rastell. Garlick-Thynne and Erasmus-Delaroche's "Cromwell," The date of 1542 is found in the colophon, but no printer's name. This edition, which I mark as No. 2, is exactly the same as the copy in the general library, attributed to the printer Reynes. This copy of No. 2 is, however, imperfect; the true title-page is missing, and the present title is made up out of a sheet of blank paper with a compartment cut out of some book printed by John Day (for it contains his name and motto) pasted on, and there is no proper title; but at the bottom, in MS., there is, "printed by John Reyne at the sigue of the St. George in Paul's Churchyarde." The colophon bears no printer's name, but is dated 1542, and the book is in all respects (except the inserted title-page) the same as Bonham's No. 2. Both these copies contain Thynne's original preface, and the poems as arranged by him, with the addition of The Plowman's Tale after The Person's Tale. The copy attributed to Reynes has many MS. notes, and has belonged to Dr. S. Wotton and to Mr. Tyrwhitt.

CHAUCER AND HIS FIRST EDITOR, WILLIAM

THYNNE.

Has it been clearly ascertained whether William Thynne edited any other edition of Chaucer than that printed by Godfray in 1532? There are two copies of this impression in the library of the British Museum, one in the general library, imperfect, and the other in the Grenville collection, perfect and in excellent condition. This edition is a black-letter folio of 383 leaves-an odd number-in consequence of an error in the numbering, printed in double columns with forty-eight lines in each full column. The title, within a square compartment and ornamented border containing naked boys in procession with drum and horn, carrying one on four others' shoulders, runs thus: "The workes of Geffcay Chaucer newly prynted with dyuers workes which were neuer in prynt before as in the table more playnly doth appere. Cum priuilegio." The preface consists of a dedication to King Henry VIII. by "William Thynne, chefe clerk of his kechyn." The colophon has, "prynted at London by Thomas Godfray. The yere of our lorde MDXXXII. cum priuilegio a rege indulto." The compartment of the title is repeated seven times in the book, before each principal poem, and there are woodcuts to nearly

[ocr errors]

There are also in the Museum library four copies of an edition, No. 3, without date, but probably nearly contemporaneous with No. 2. This work is also a black-letter folio with double columns of fifty-three lines each; all four copies exactly alike, but attributed each to a different printer. The copies do not much differ from No. 2, but they have The Plowman's Tale before, instead of after, The Person's Tale, and they are not so well printed. They are attributed severally to |“ Wyllyam Bonham, dwellynge in Paules Churcheyarde at the sygne of the reed lyon"; "Thomas Petit, in Paules Churche yarde at the synge of the Maydens heed"; "Robert Toye, in Paules Churche yarde at the sygne of the Bell"; "Richard Kele,

in Lombard Strete nere unto the Stockes Market at the sygne of the Egle." All these copies of No. 3 have the same title-page, surrounded with a square window-frame compartment, and within it, "The workes of Geffray Chaucer newly prynted with dyuers workes which were neuer in print before as in the table more playnly doth appere." They all have Thynne's preface and the same table of contents. There are no dates, and the name of the printer is in the colophon only. Evidently these four are from one impression with a different colophon for each printer. Thus it seems clear that there were three editions of Chaucer's whole works printed between 1532 and 1550 with Thynne's preface, and all founded on Thynne's first edition, viz, Godfray's of 1532. Godfray was the only printer of No. 1; No. 2 was the joint production of Bonham and Reyne, or Reynes; No. 3 the joint production of Bonham, Petit, Toye, and Kele. After 1532 the first really fresh edition is that of John Stowe, in 1561, which, however, contains Thynne's preface. But it is not so clear to me that Thynne is responsible for any other edition than that of 1532.

Emanuel Hospital, Westminster. P.S.-There is, I believe, an example of Reynes's edition (No. 2) in the Lambeth Library (see Maitland's Early Printed Books, 1843). It bears the name of John Reynes at the foot of the titlepage in print, and not merely in MS.
