Excerpt from The Complete Works of Geoffrey Chaucer

The question Of the date has been well investigated by Ten Brink; but it may be observed beforehand that the allusion to the queen' in l. 496 has long ago been noticed, and it has been thence inferred, by Tyrwhitt, that the Prologue must have been written after 1382, the year when Richard II. Married his first wife, the 'good queen Anne.' But Ten Brink's remarks enable us to look at the question much more closely.
