Description
Scribal glosses in a copy of this third incunabular edition of CT (STC 5084) provide further evidence of manuscript W, a hypothesized manuscript affiliated with Trinity College, Cambridge, MS R.3.15, and Wynkyn de Worde's edition of CT. They also evince the intermingling of scribal and print modes of production at the close of the fifteenth century.
