Boece. Chaucer's translation of Boethius, set alternately with the corresponding Latin source sections and surrounded by gloss material, much of which is from Nicholas Trevet's commentary. Some parts of the first four lines of the English have been lost because of the excising of a miniature from the MS. IPMEP 43. Ed. from this MS by Tim W. Machan, Chaucer's Boece, MET 38 (Heidelberg, 2008).
