Objection, M’lud!🧑‍⚖️

An outrageous and unsubstantiated accusation! I hereby present evidence to the contrary and contest this allegation.

Take not the smokescreen of rhyming couplets as truth,
For Merton’s fox is both incompetent and uncouth.

Although our fox is not as fancy as the one in Douce,

He’s more successful than Renart, who couldn’t catch a mouse! 🐭

Not sure the fox over at @MertonBeasts has quite as much going for it? Maybe I'm biased...

The fox is very cunning and takes pleasure in deceit:

he'll often play dead in the dust and nearby birds will eat.

Looks like there's a new kid on the block «entre le loup et le renard». Should Renart and Isengrin be worried?

🎼A rather eclectic mix of fox-themed music for you to listen to whilst browsing MS. Douce 360 online.

What piece of music would you choose to represent Renart?🎵

Little does Tibert know that #Lockdown3 is upon us and Renart won't be leaving his home for weeks.
