- Description
- The rare construciton "go + walked" occurs only in BD 387 and SumT 3.1778. No other instances are recorded in the OED, the MED, or Visser. Discussion about this construction will contribute to a more accurate reading of Chaucer's text and to an explanation of Middle English constructions hitherto unrelated.
