BOCCACCIO.
(9 th S. iii. 247.)
IN addition to the English poems men- tioned above I may notice the following as derived from the same source, for in Milton's words
Hither, as to their fountain, other stars Repairing, in their golden urns draw light.
Chaucer.
' The Knight's Tale ' is a recasting of Boc- caccio's ' Teseide.'
- The Reeve's Tale ' is traceable to the sixth
novel of the ninth day of the 'Decameron' through Jean de Boves's ' De Gombert et des Deux Clercs,' the original fabliau.
"The Compleynt of feire Anelida and fals Arcite ' derives ten opening stanzas from ' II Teseide.'
4 The Parlement of Foules ' contains over a hundred lines freely translated from 'II Teseide.'
' Troilus and Criseyde ' is Chaucer's version of ' II Filostrato.'
'TheShipman's Tale' is the first novel of the eighth day of the 'Decameron.'
