Abstract

en_US This 16-page large-format pamphlet is the third of six volumes. Each page contains one fable with a colored illustration, with a moral given in a colored banner across the bottom of the page. There is a T of C on the inside front cover. This volume contains a curious illustration for FWT (4), in which the upright fox seems to strike a pose appropriate to a fashion model. On the following page we find wating for waiting. The Fawn and His Mother (9) is told in unusual fashion. Usually child chides parent. Here the mother upbraids her son--and then runs off when she hears the dogs. There is an extra apostrophe at the end of the third-last line. Page 10 speaks of the ferocious beast, the Loin! The coloring of the illustrations is often garish, but here The Peacock and Juno (12) is very nicely illustrated. This fable also ends with an excellent line from Juno: Make no more complaints: for, if your present wish were granted, you would quickly find cause for fresh discontent.
