Reader's note

This is a truly wonderful vintage Penguin that everyone should take the time to read! Originally written in the 1300s this collection of tales has managed to stand the test of time and has become a classic work! In this extract we learn about the apprentice in The Cokes Tale - A prentis whylom dwelled in our citee, And of a craft of vitaillers was he; Gaillard he was as goldfinch in the shawe, Broun as a berie, a propre short felawe, With lokkes blake, y-kempt ful fetisly. - brilliantly written in every way! Add this brilliant old book to your library today and see if the marker of classic still stands.
