To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' But 'twas a gentle keeper, one that knew Humanity and manners, where they grew, And rode along so far, till he could say, 'See, yonder Bosworth stands, and this your way. '"[42] [Footnote 42: Corbett's Poems, p. 191. ] In this passage the bishop plainly shows the fairies maintained theirinfluence in William's imagination, since the courteous keeper wasmistaken by their associate champion for Puck or Robin Goodfellow. Thespells resorted to to get rid of his supposed delusions arealternatively ...that of turning the cloak--(recommended in visions of thesecond-sight or similar illusions as a means of obtaining a certaintyconcerning the being which is before imperfectly seen[43])--and that ofexorcising the spirit with a cudgel; which last, Corbett prudentlythinks, ought not to be resorted to unless under an absolute convictionthat the exorcist is the stronger party. Chaucer, therefore, could notbe serious in averring that the fairy superstitions were obsolete in hisday, since they were found current three centuries afterwards.
