About Laurence Minot

Laurence Minot (1300? – 1352?) was an English poet. Nothing definite is known of him. It has been suggested that he was a cousin of Thomas Minot, Archbishop of Dublin 1363–1375. If this is so, he came from a family from the north of England. He may have been a soldier. Eleven poems are attributed to him, all of which appear uniquely in London: British Library, MS Galba E. ix. In them, he celebrates in northern English and with a somewhat ferocious patriotism the victories of Edward III over the Scots and the French.

For dern dedes that done me dere.
Of Ingland had my hert grete care
When Edward founded first to were.
The Franche men war frek to fare
Ogaines him with scheld and spere,
Thai turned ogayn with sides sare,
And al thaire pomp noght worth a pere.
