Title
The Divine Granary, or the End of the Prioress's 'Greyn'

Published
Chaucer Review 17 (1982): 163-70.

Description
Although earlier scholarship has recognized the importance of the Feast of the Holy Innocents in PrT, a reading of the entire mass as it occurs in the Sarum use suggests that the "greyn" is not a mere prop but a symbol with rich liturgical resonances.
