  We have studied the decay $\bar{B} \to D\ell\bar{\nu}$, where $\ell=e or
\mu$. From a fit to the differential decay rate $d\Gamma/dw$ we measure the
rate normalization ${\cal F}_D(1)|V_{cb}|$ and form factor slope
$\hat{\rho}^2_D$, and, using measured values of $\tau_B$, find $\Gamma(\bar{B}
\to D\ell\bar{\nu}) = (12.0 \pm 0.9 \pm 2.1) ns^{-1}$. The resulting branching
fractions are ${\cal B}(\bar{B}^0 \to D^+\ell^-\bar{\nu})=(1.87 \pm 0.15 \pm
0.32)%$ and ${\cal B}(B^- \to D^0\ell^-\bar{\nu})=(1.94 \pm 0.15 \pm 0.34)%$.
The form factor parameters are in agreement with those measured in $\bar{B} \to
D^*\ell\bar{\nu}$ decays, as predicted by heavy quark effective theory.
