Excerpt from Journal of the American Oriental Society; Vol. 20: Second Half For some account of the occurrence of this story; in the same form or slightly varied; in the literature of many of the nations of Europe; see the Introduction to the ballad of King John and the Abbot of Canterbury; in Child's English and Scottish Ballads. The most natural explanation of the appearance of such a tale as this in the literature of these neighboring nations; English; French; Spanish; Italian; German; Danish; is that it made its way from one people to another by oral and literary transmission. Examples of the kind have always been abundant. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
