"Exclusive of the Romaunt of the rose, part of which is by Chaucer, and Surigon's Latin Epitaph, the folio includes 40 pieces.  Of these, 18 are by Chaucer; 8 (apparently) by Lydate; 2 by Hoccleve; 1 apiece by Henryson, Ros, Usk, Gower, Clanvowe, and Scogan (6 in all); and 6 are anonymous.  To these we may add 1 more piece by Chaucer, viz. his Balade on Gentilesse, introduced into the middle of the piece by Scogan. Out of these 41 pieces, 19 are by Chaucer, and 22 by others.  Even if we reckon by pages, the genuine works occupy less than three-fourths of the volume." - Table of contents.
