Digitized by Google CH. I.] EARLY NEW HIGH GERMAN LITERATURE. 1 53 Finally Grymbait the Badger, who is friendly to Reynke, fetches him to the court He is tried and condemned to death, but, as in the older versions, escapes by telling the king of a hidden treasure. In order that he may not need to accompany the king on his search for the treasure, Reynke proposes to go to Rome: — ** Wente Rejoike, he wyl morgen vro Staff Ynde rentzel nemen an Vnde to deme pawes to Rome ghan ; Van danne
...n wyl he oyer dat meer Vnde kumpt ock nicht weddcr heer, Er dan dat he heft vuUe afflat Van alle der sundichlyken daet." ^ Lampe the Hare and Bellyn the Ram accompany him, and the trio ultimately reach Malepertusj Lampe is invited into the castle and serves Reynke and his family for supper. The Fox then packs Lampe's head in his wallet and sends it back to the king with the Ram as an important letter. This is practically the close of the first book of the poem.
The remaining three books, which are much shorter, are in- ferior in poetic interest ; the didactic element assumes greater proportions, and the fact that the general outline of the narra- tive is the same as in the first books, suggests that the story was extended to satisfy the popular craving for a continuation.
