Hop-Frog
In Hop-Frog it was a recipe for revenge since the beginning of the tale. The king had no respect for the jesters and made Hop-Frog drink the wine when he did not want to at all, it even brought him to tears. "Drink I say!". This quote shows how the king had no tolerance for the jester not following his directions and forced him unwillingly to drink the wine that he had no intention of drinking, especially on his birthday. This story reminds me of some of the previous Native-American tales we read because of the trickery intertwined in the story. Also, just like the Native-American tales the trickster ends up getting tricked in the end.
