In Soviet Russia, Horn Blows You (Mmm… Marginalia #92)

A little Monday morning wisdom from the margins of British Library MS Royal 14 E III:

And I mean blown in a totally nonsexual way, even though, yes, that is his junk you see there by the rooster's beak.

Some days, you blow the horn.

Some days, you get blown. ((By a rooster.  And you’re naked.  And did I mention there’s a rabbit in your horn?  †
† The longer I type, the less proverby it becomes.  Best to quit while I’m way behind.))

Oh, and since this image comes courtesy of the British Library, it seems like a good idea to mention that the Medieval and Earlier Manuscripts Department now has their own blog. ((Unless, for some reason, you think they wouldn’t want to be associated with a a blog that regularly intermittently posts images of medieval dangly bits. ††
††And if you do think that, I might remind you that they are the ones who digitized said danglies. I just re-post them and snigger.))
