Obsolete spelling of virtuous. Definitely Middle English; perhaps not Modern English. — Raifʻhār Doremítzwr ~ (U · T · C) ~ 01:58, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

A google books:vertuous search shows in the first couple pages usage by Drayton, Sidney and Spenser. Couldn't that search have been made before bringing it here?--Prosfilaes (talk) 06:54, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

Maybe, but I was adding Middle English words for nearly twelve hours straight yesterday; I was feeling a bit frazzled and automaton-like by the time I got to vertuous. — Raifʻhār Doremítzwr ~ (U · T · C) ~ 15:24, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

Fair enough.--Prosfilaes (talk) 20:59, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

I've added two English (post-1500) citations. Thanks for adding all the Middle English terms, Raif! - -sche (discuss) 22:03, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
