Legends of the Middle Ages

CHAPTER III
23/23

Of course no wolf of the exact age could be found but Isegrim, so he was sacrificed to save the king, who recovered.

As for Reynard, he enjoyed great honor as long as he lived, and his adventures have long been the delight of the people, whom his tricks never failed to amuse.
"Highly honor'd is Reineke now! To wisdom let all men Quickly apply them, and flee what is evil, and reverence virtue! This is the end and aim of the song, and in it the poet Fable and truth hath mixed, whereby the good from the evil Ye may discern, and wisdom esteem; and thereby the buyers Of this book in the ways of the world may be daily instructed.
For it was so created of old, and will ever remain so.
Thus is our poem of Reineke's deeds and character ended.
May God bring us all to eternal happiness.

Amen!".
