Cleverness used for self-interest, and a warning to check whether things are what they seem. Many modern readers also read the Fox as one's day job. [13][14][11]
Text on the 19th-century card
Printed on a French Petit Lenormand (Geûens-Sea, Bruges, c. 1895–1901), Bibliothèque nationale de France [1]
Si cette carte est proche, il faut se garder des personnes avec lesquelles on est en relation, parce que quelques-unes cherchent à nous duper ; dans le cas contraire il n'y a pas de danger.
If this card is near, beware of the people you deal with, because some of them are trying to deceive you; otherwise there is no danger.
