Well said, Douglas & Jim. For an analysis of Lloyd's Reynardine, see Folklore (vol.117 if memory serves)and what about the rewrite that produced the most erroneous recording credits of all, his creation of The Recruited Collier. It's not that what he did was wrong - his (re)creations were, in my opinion, brilliant - it's exactly what Malcolm says, it's the potential deceit and the perpetuated ignorance! Tom
