Summary:

James I. Wimsatt edits Guillaume de Machaut's important Dit de la fleur de lis et de la Marguerite ; he identifies an acrostic connecting the earlier Dit de la Marguerite and Complainte VI with the crusader Pierre of Cyprus; and he established a probable historical framework for the three poems.
