"The manuscript now reproduced in facsimile is a fragment, but little can have been lost beyond the introduction. The original is now in the British museum (press-mark Harl. 367), and is described in Wanley's catalogue 'as a book in folio wherein are contained many letters and fragments, with various poems ...' The present interlude or 'disputation' is the forty-first item in the volume, folios 110-119 ... Mr. Collier named it 'Wit and Folly,' and under this title it was for the first time printed by the Percy society in 1846."
