147. _In_, into, unto; see note to l. 366. 152. _Synoun_, Sinon; Aen. ii. 195. 153. I supply _That_, both for sense and metre. 155. _Made the hors broght_, caused the horse to be brought. On this idiom, see the note to Man of Lawes Tale, B 171. 158. _Ilioun_, Ilium. _Ilium_ is only a poetical name for Troy; but the medieval writers often use it in the restricted sense of the citadel of Troy, where was the temple of Apollo and the palace of Priam. Thus, in the alliterative Troy-book, 11958, _ylion_ certainly has this sense; and Caxton speaks of 'the palays of _ylyon_'; see Spec. of English, ed. Skeat, p. 94. See also the parallel passage in the Nonne Preestes Tale, B 4546. Still more clearly, in the Leg. Good Women (Dido, 13), Chaucer says, of 'the tour of Ilioun,' that it 'of the citee was the cheef dungeoun.' In l. 163 below, it is called _castel_. 160. _Polites_, Polites; Aen. ii. 526. Also spelt _Polite_ in Troil. iv. 53. 163. _Brende_, was on fire; used intransitively, as in l. 537. 164-73. See Aen. ii. 589-733. 174. Read _this_, rather than _his_. Cf. Aen. ii. 736. 177. Iulus and Ascanius were one and the same person; see Æn. i. 267. Perhaps Ch. was misled by the wording of Æn. iv. 274. (On the other hand, Brutus was _not_ the same person as Cassius; see Monkes Tale, B 3887). Hence, Koch proposes to read _That hight_ instead of _And eek_; but we have no authority for this. However, Chaucer has it right in his Legend of Good Women, 941; and in l. 192 below, we find _sone_, not _sones_; hence l. 178 may be merely parenthetical. 182. _Wente_, foot-path; Aen. ii. 737. Cf. Book Duch. 398. 184. 'So that she was dead, but I know not how.' Vergil does not say _how_ she died. 185. _Gost_, ghost; see Aen. ii. 772. 189. Repeated from l. 180. 198. Here Chaucer returns to the first book of the Æneid, which he follows down to l. 255. 204. 'To blow forth, (with winds) of all kinds'; cf. Æn. i. 85. 219. _Ioves_, Jove, Jupiter. This curious form occurs again, ll. 586, 597, 630; see note to l. 586. Boccaccio has _Giove_. 226. _Achatee_ (trisyllabic), Achates, Æn. i. 312; where the abl. form _Achate_ occurs. 239. The story of Dido is told at length in Le Rom. de la Rose, 13378; in The Legend of Good Women; and in Gower, Conf. Amantis, bk. iv., ed. Pauli, ii. 4. Chaucer now passes on to the fourth book of the Æneid, till he comes to l. 268 below. 265. 'Mès ja ne verrés d'aparence Conclurre bonne consequence'; Rom. Rose, 12343. 272. 'It is not all gold that glistens.' A proverb which Chaucer took from Alanus de Insulis; see note to Can. Yem. Tale, G 962. 273. 'For, as sure as I hope to have good use of my head.' _Brouke_ is, practically, in the optative mood. Cf. 'So mote I brouke wel myn eyen tweye'; Cant. Ta., B 4490; so also E 2308. The phrase occurs several times in the Tale of Gamelyn; see note to l. 334 of that poem.
