Shipman's Tale

The Shipman's
Tale at the UVa Electronic Text Center.
Read the
Shipman's Tale in the context of Fragment
VII - Group B2.
Read the Shipman's
Tale according to the Hengwrt ms (Hg), one of the two most important early
manuscripts, at the University of Toronto's Representative Poetry On-line
site. The Ellesmere ms (El) is the other important early edition.
2. In Modern English Translation
Scott
Gettman's edition of the Canterbury
Tales (Electronic Literature Foundation) is accessible by individual tale &

English. Easily navigable, and the Middle English glosses are very helpful.
