"Chaucer" on book authorship

From the great and funny "Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog"

"But the writinge of a booke doth but litel to take awey the dailye necessitees of the clerk of a kinges workes and a husband. Ywis, thogh ther be many volumes on the shelf clad in orange and blak, yet the trasshe taketh ytself nat out."
