The Milky Way
The phrase “the Milky Way” first appears in Geoffrey Chaucer’s The House of Fame (c. 1380).

“To choose April without even acknowledging these poets’ contrary representations of the month (which after all might remind us of the great variety of perspectives on reality that poems afford) seems an odd gesture indeed.”
Geoffrey Chaucer, Ezra Pound, B.P.E.
