Thomas Speght and His Glossaries to Chaucer’s Works (1598, 1602) difficult to read: apart from explicit statements to that effect, there is also the indirect evidence for this in the appearance of marginal and interlinear glosses in Chaucerian MSS., and most convincingly in the publication of an edition of Chaucer with an extensive glossary.

John Bullokar:, (1616)Speght’s glossary of 1602. Bullokar added a small number of words that he had probably encountered in his own reading. His selection of old words is a haphazard one, but it influenced later English lexicographers, especially Cockeram.

John Kersey: , (1708)debted to Coles’ . and therefore in a great many instances ultimately to Speght. The immediate effect of the expansion was that the alphabetical distribution of old words in this dictionary became more even than in the dictionary of which it was an abridgement.

Nathan Bailey: , (1721)emented these with material from other lexicographical sources. In spite of the large variety of lexicographical material available to him, 50% of the old words in Bailey’s dictionary still derive ultimately from Speght. Thus Speght’s glossaries continued to dominate the selection of old words for well over a century of English lexicography.

Conclusions both considerable and long-lasting. The first inclusion of a glossary in an edition of Chaucer shows that by 1598 Chaucer’s words were becoming hard to understand, and there are indications that this difficulty in understanding Chaucer’s poetry contributed to a decline in his popularity until he was ‘rescued’ by Dryden.

This influence is evident from the large number of Speghtian old words included in English dictionaries down to 1721. These old words and their source have hitherto received hardly any attention.

Pro Ajax and the .NET 2.0 Platformnth-century English lexicographers promoted the idea that ‘Chaucer’ means ‘old’ and ‘old’ means ‘Chaucer’. It will therefore be useful to look at Chaucer’s reputation and to consider in general the comprehensibility of Middle English in the period we are concerned with.
