The Works of J.W. von Goethe, Vol. X (in 14 volumes): with His Life by George Henry Lewes: Poems of Goethe Vol. II and Reynard the Fox (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781646792023)

"When eyes upon Reynard he set, as now in the ring he appeared,

With body clean shaven and smooth, and over and over bedaubed

With oil and perfidious fat, with laughter the king was convulsed.

You fox, who that has you taught? he exclaimed.

With justice, indeed,

You Reynard, the Fox, may be called; a trickster incessant you are.

Some hole you in all places know, and how to make use of it too."

--Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Reynard the Fox, Canto Twelve
