Description

This is a new edition and selection of the corpus of anonymous medieval English lyrics, drawing on love lyrics, devotional and moral lyrics and miscellaneous secular lyrics. All the texts are presented in their original forms (rather than translated into modern English, as has previously been the case with Penguin publication of these works), freshly edited from the original and normalized to accord with late 14th century London dialect.
