Excerpt from Jyl of Breyntfords Testament: The Wyll of the Deuyll and His Last Testament, a Talk of Ten Wives on Their Husbands' Ware, a Balade or Two by Chaucer, and Other Short Pieces The Talk of Ten Wives on their Husba/nds' Ware was first brought into public notice by Sir F. Madden, in his account of the contents of the Porkington MS No. 10, in his Syr Gawayne for the Bannatyne Club. He called it an amusing but indelicate story. Mr. Halliwell also quoted several passages from it in his Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words. It illustrates those old-time women Of Britain, of whom Chaucer's wife-of-bath and Dunbar's Widow are the types, and justifies those poets' sketches. The Ten Wives' Talk is, we may be sure, no libel on what went on at those frequent sittings at the ale in which women formerly indulged. A near relative of mine, a few years since, was greatly astonished to see a like question to that discust by the Wives, experimentally settled on some clean plates, for a bet, by a party of Welsh farmers after a market dinner at an inn on the borders. A few other pieces of like character that have come across me in my manuscript work, are added. In the Jyl tract the black-letter I is printed I or J accord ing to modern usage.
