1530. _Alles-kinnes_ is in the gen. sing., and _Of_ governs _condiciouns_; thus the line is equivalent to--'Of conditions of every kind'; whereas modern English uses--'Of every kind of condition.' This peculiar idiom was formerly common; and precisely similar to it is the phrase _noskinnes_, for which see note to l. 1794. Observe that the phrase is oddly written _alle skynnes_ in MS. F., by a misdivision of the words. So in Piers Plowman, A. ii. 175, we have the phrase _for eny kunnes yiftus_, for gifts of any kind, where one MS. has _any skynes_. In my note to P. Plowman, C. xi. 128, I give numerous examples, with references, of phrases such as _none kynnes riche_, _many kynnes maneres_, _summes kunnes wise_, _what kyns schape_, &c. 1550. 'Those that did pray her for her favour.' 1564. 'Because it does not please me.' 1570. I here alter _Vpon peyne_ to _Vp peyne_, as the former will not scan, and the latter is the usual idiom. See _up peyne_ in Kn. Tale, A 1707, 2543; Man of Lawes Tale, B 795, 884. Cf. _vp the toft_, upon the toft, P. Plowman, B. i. 12; _vp erthe_, upon earth, id. B. ix. 99. 1571. Cf. Rom. Rose, 18206--'Car Eolus, li diex des vens.' From Vergil, Æn. i. 52; cf. Ovid, Met. xiv. 223, where Æolus is said to reign over the Tuscan sea. The connection of Æolus with Thrace is not obvious; cf. l. 1585. Ovid, however, has 'Threicio Borea'; Art. Am. ii. 431. And see Lounsbury, Studies in Chaucer, ii. 382. 1596. _Took to_, delivered to. _Triton_, Triton; imitated from Ovid, Met. i. 333, where Neptune calls Triton, and bids him sound his 'shell,' the sound of which resounded everywhere. 1598. We rarely find _to_ used after _leet_; the usual formula is _leet go_. But cf. _leet to glyde_ in Cant. Ta., F 1415. Or read _to-go_, _to-glyde_. 1618. _Wite_ is badly spelt _wete_ or _wote_ in the MS. copies; but the very phrase _wite ye what_ occurs in C. T., E 2431. However, Ch. certainly uses the phrase _ye woot_ instead of _ye wite_, more than once. 1640. _Overthrowe_, be overthrown; as in the Tale of Gamelin, 512. Cf. Melibeus, B 2755. 1643. A _pelet_ was a stone ball, such as used to be fired from the earliest kind of cannon, of which this is a very early mention. See my glossary to P. Plowman (Clar. Press). 1670. _Lat goon_, let go, lay aside.
