The Fool Errant is a novel written by Maurice Hewlett, first published in 1895. The story follows the adventures of a young man named Sir John Oxon, who is known for his wit and charm but lacks direction in life. He sets out on a journey across Europe, seeking adventure and love. Along the way, he meets a cast of colorful characters, including a beautiful princess, a cunning thief, and a wise old philosopher. Sir John must navigate the dangers and temptations of his journey while trying to find his place in the world. The book is a blend of romance, adventure, and satire, with themes of love, loyalty, and self-discovery. Hewlett's vivid descriptions of the landscapes and characters bring the story to life, making it a classic of English literature.I never credited her with more than charity towards myself; and if I gloried in the fact that I was privileged to love so wondrous a being, the thought humiliated me at the same time. I was conscious of my nothingness before her worthiness, and desperate to fit myself for her high society. A noble rage for excellence possessed me; like any champion or knight of old I strove to approve my manhood, only that I might lay the spoils of it at her sacred feet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
