When the blind delator, Catullus Messalinus, is summoned to give his advice concerning the gigantic turbot: nemo magis rhombum stupuit; nam plurima dixit in laevom conversus, at illi dextra iacebat belua.
Chaucer may easily have learnt this story from his favourite Ovid, who says-- 'Telephus aeterna consumptus tabe perisset Si non quae nocuit dextra tulisset opem.
He put spurs to his horse and, followed by a brilliant train of mounted men, dashed down the hill and through the Porta Principalis Dextra eastward, toward the sun.
Between the Porta Principalis Dextraand the Porta Principalis Sinistra ran a cross street, the Via Principalis.
