Vulpes sine cauda

BLOG HAS MOVED TO: LatinCrossword.blogspot.com







I'm using some new crossword puzzle software (online, fast, easy) to create new puzzles to go with the new Aesop's fables I'm posting at LatinViaFables.com.

Today's fable at Latin Via Fables is Vulpes sine cauda: The Tailless Fox. You can visit the Latin Via Fables page to see the Latin text, English translation and some grammar help.

Word List. Here is an alphabetical word list of the Latin words included in the puzzle:
audire basilica cauda detruncare dolor fera fovea habere incidere leo miser mos occurrere periculum pudor redire socius solamen vulpecula vulpes
