Reseña del editor
No less than nine Middle English manuscripts of The Seven Sages of Rome have survived to the present time. Yet only two of these manuscripts have until now been published, one the Auchinleck (A),1 by Weber,2 in 1810; the other, the Cambridge MS. Dd. I. 17 (D), by Wright,3 in 1845.
