"Chaucer's reputation had suffered because the principles on which his verse depends were no longer understood; it was Tyrwhitt who pointed out that final e's by his time mute ought to be pronounced as separate syllables and that the accent of a word was often placed in the French manner e.g. virtúe not vírtue. Tyrwhitt's scholarship is still held in great respect." Britannica. ESTC: T75508. 1338815. Shelved Dupont Bookstore. at the Clarendon Press hardcover
