- Abstract
- en_US Both the fabulist and the book are new to me. From my samplilng of the stories, they are strongly on the pious side. The very first fable contrasts two banners appealing to a young man. One promises pleasures now but gloomy silence hereafter. The other promises the cross now, but hereafter? That is left for the reader to decide. Perhaps more broadly traditional is "The Chandelier and the Lantern" (6). The lantern is more modest but endures the storm; the chandelier is more brilliant but can be killed by a puff of wind. "The Two Colts" (7-9) contrasts the young colt who removes himself from danger with the colt who tries to outrun the monster chasing it. T of C at the front. 185 pages. 5" x 6¼".
