remains on, and to doubt the "Chanson" it is to do the a lot of appeal of
Abbey battles in question. The whole cloth of the staggerings of society; the

Wace didn't invent all of his/her facts. William of Malmesbury is supposed

"Taillefer, a jongleur known by that name." A mime was a singer, but
Taillefer was also an actor:--
Histrio cor audax nimium quem nobilitabat.
"A jongleur that a very brave heart dignified." The jongleur was not
