Title
The Whole Truth about 'Vache'

Published
Chaucer Newsletter 2.1 (1980): 13-14.

Description
In Truth the reference to Vache is not to Sir Philip de la Vache but to Chaucer. "Vache, leve" translates the OF phrase "reis, vache!" which is (e)Chavsier spelled backwards. The reversal of letters points to a real conversion in Chaucer.
