A curious story featured as no. 207 in the Old Yiddish  Mayse bukh  tells about the courtly education of a Pomeranian prince. The touchstone for his successful mastery of courtly manners is his telling an aventiure during a banquet. His education involves skillful treason, pursuing his own material and sexual interests and seducing the three daughters of his host. The youngest becomes pregnant and they fall in love, but it takes yet another ploy to get the permission to marry her. The mayse stands out from the rest of the compilation due to its apparent lack of morality which the  Mayse bukh’s  compiler seems to hold high otherwise. But a closer look reveals the narrative means of commentary and irony which distance the Jewish recipients of the mayse from the narrated content that is set in the exotic sphere of a Christian court. Readers are led by the narrator to view the narrated events as immoral actions, which are not part of their own culture.
