Description
 
- I for one have always believed in the unicorn... The unicorn has managed to weave itself a very haunting reputation. It was suppose to be extremely difficult to catch, but it had an unfortunate and touching weakness for virgins, whom it could apparently detect by instinct.

When it came across one of these pure maidens, preferably naked, it would trustingly nestle in her lap and allow itself to be lulled to sleep, thus becoming an easy victim for the hunter. Of course, if by chance she wasn't a virgin, the incensed unicorn would naturally kill her -- which only seems fair in the circumstances.

Another widestpread story was the water-conning incident in which the unicorn would dip its horn into water which had been poisened by a snake and thus render it safe for the other animals to drink...

Mr. Shepard wanders into many curious byways and hunts his prey with scholarly thoroughness and infectious pleasure...
 - Jean Richardson The Biringham Post
