Subject: RE: Origins: Lord Lovel (Child #75)
Thanks Steve.I've been trying to stick with "comic version" to avoid making the distinction :-)

So would this be a parody?

75D 

Btw, this would be the first version of Lord Lovel in print (1827 Kinloch). Despite the fact that it is usually listed as c.1770 Percy. It should not be. To quote from the Percy-Parsons link in my last post:

If Parsons hoped to see some of this material appear in a later edition of the Reliques, he was disappointed; the manuscripts would gather dust among Percy's papers until Francis Childs retrieved them in the late 19th century."

That means Percy's text 75A was not in print until c.1884.
