Thomas See also:Tyrwhitt in a MS. (See also:Cotton See also:Galba, E. IX., See also:British Museum) which See also:bore on the See also:fly-See also:leaf the misleading inscription: " See also:Chaucer, Exemplar emendate scriptum." It See also:dates from the beginning of the 15th See also:century. The authorship of Laurence Minot's eleven songs is fixed by the opening of the fifth: " Minot with mowth had menid to make," and in VII. 20, " Now Laurence Minot will begin." The poems were evidently written contemporaneously with the events they describe. The first celebrates the English See also:triumph at Halidon See also:- HILL
- HILL (0. Eng. hyll; cf. Low Ger. hull, Mid. Dutch hul, allied to Lat. celsus, high, collis, hill, &c.)
- HILL, A

- HILL, ROWLAND (1744–1833)
- HILL, SIR ROWLAND (1795-1879)
Hill (1333), and the last the See also:capture of See also:Guines (1352). The writer is animated by an ardent See also:personal admiration for Edward III. and a See also:savage joy in the triumphs of the English over their enemies. The technical difficulty of his metres and the comparatively even quality of the See also:work led to the inference that Minot had written other songs, but none have come to See also:light. Nothing whatever is known of his See also:life, but the minuteness of his See also:information suggests that he accompanied Edward on some of his See also:campaigns. Though his name proves him to have been of See also:Norman See also:birth, he writes vigorous and idiomatic English of the See also:northern See also:dialect with some admixture of midland forms. His poems areinstinct with a fierce See also:national feeling, which has been accepted as an See also:index of the See also:union of interests between the Norman and
English elements arising out of See also:common dangers and common successes.
There are excellent See also:editions of Minot's poems by Wilhelm Scholle (Quellen and Forschungen, vol. lii., Strasburg, 1884), with notes on See also:etymology and See also:metre, and by Mr J. See also:- HALL

Mr Hall is inclined to include as his work the " Hymn to Jesus See also:Christ and the Virgin " (Religious Pieces, See also:Early English See also:Text Society, No. 26, p. 76), on the grounds of similarity of See also:style and See also:language.
