A popular German epic poem, first known in a Low-German version in the fifteenth century, relating the adventures of the fox scheming his way to favour at the court of the lion by sheer cunning and hypocrisy. The poem is thus a satire on the intrigues and the iniquities of courts.
By Henry Percy Smith
