That looks more like a page from Boethius' "Consolations of Philosophy" to me. Interesting, that, since a young man who is both employed where I work and a good friend of my daughters was reading it when I stopped in briefly at the home where he works, and we had a brief discussion about Boethius and this famous book he wrote.

Hi Dave,

Technically, you are correct...but...this particular page was published by the Kelmscott Press and the art work looks almost identical to the Kelmscott Chaucer publication. I couldn't find a Chaucer page that would fit so I used this one in it's place. The art work really does look almost identical and that is what I wanted to get across.
