Concludes with a Handbook of Grammar and Glossary of Usage, ie. un sens plus aux mots de la tribu.

DOGS. "Dog-lovers, of course, have tradition on their side. Dogs are indeed affectionate and faithful...". Concede, then "go to bat for the cats, showing their superiority...".
SHAKESPEARE begins Romeo and Juliet with ominous warnings about fate. The couple sprung from "fatal loins", Fate has already determined their tragic end. The play then unfolds, and we discover S really blames the tragedy not on fate but on human stupidity and error. [11]
