5. Adam Usk, The Chronicle of Adam Usk, 1377–1421, ed. and trans. by Chris Given-Wilson (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1997), 4–5 (translation). Perhaps he inserted the caveat to assure any readers or listeners that he had fully considered Anne's life and contributions, and, despite her lack, found her to be a completely satisfactory queen. Although Usk's chronicle did not achieve circulation outside of family and Elizabethan antiquaries, in 1401 he probably hoped it would have a wider audience than friends and family (albeit after his death). Usk might have changed his mind after he suffered a series of troubles and absence from England in 1405–14, but the parts concerning Richard II were written in 1401, when Usk likely still intended to have his chronicle circulated after his death. See Given-Wilson's introduction in The Chronicle of Adam Usk, lxxxiv–lxxxvi. In that same edition, see pages 118 and 119 for Usk's quote ‘I should hate this account of my present follies to be seen during my lifetime.’.
