William Thynne's edition with additions by John Stow.

Contains some dubious Chaucerian works added by John Stow as well as The Siege and destruction of the worthy city of Thebes, attributed to John Lidgate but possibly written by Stow.

There are at least two different issues of the 1561 Stow edition. In one, the title is within a woodcut compartment (McKerrow & Ferguson 67) and the Prologue is on leaves [fleuron]2-A4 with woodcut illustrations at the beginning of each of the sections of the Prologue; in the other, the title-page bears a cut of Chaucer's coat of arms with the date 1560 above the shield and the Prologue, appearing on leaves A2-A6, is unillustrated. This is the latter.
