Till Eulenspiegel, the wandering trickster of German folk tradition, is born and baptised three times in one day, learns to dance on a rope, deceives a baker at Strasbourg and talks his way out of the gallows. Kenneth Mackenzie’s 1860 version retells the adventures in mock-antique English, with drawings by Alfred Crowquill.
