Review
Two glossed texts of "Disticha" reprinted and edited here; relevance to Gower, and Chaucer and Langland, discussed in introduction; apparently the "Disticha" served poets as source for direct and indirect quotation to varying degrees, and differently in different poems; Gower's greatest dependence is in VC. [RFY1981].
