Note 611 — THE HUNCHBACK'S TALE. (continued 2)
Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2
I have noticed the antiquity of this father of our sextant, a fragment of which was found in the Palace of Sennacherib. More concerning the "Arstable" (as Chaucer calls it) is given in my "Camoens: his Life and his Lusiads" p. 381.
