Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Castel Off Love (Chasteau D'amour, or Carmen De Creatione Mundi): An Early English Translation of an Old French Poem
In Mr. Cockayne's Foreword just alluded to he expresses the opinion that the present generation of English scholars has not advanced to that point at which an editor may treat his text according to the true theory of a critical edition, and endeavour to make it as perfect as possible, whether by collation or emendation I have ventured on the experiment; with what success, my readers will be able to judge.
