| Summary | "Tattle-tales of Cupid" by Paul Leicester Ford is a collection of stories and possibly plays written in the late 19th century. The opening portion introduces a whimsical narrative from the perspective of horses discussing love and relationships, hinting at a blend of humor and light-hearted sentiment. The characters include the old war-horse Reveille and various other equine inhabitants of a stable as they ponder matters of the heart, largely centered around their human companions." "At the start of the narrative, several horses gather to discuss the beauty of a particular mare and critique one another, leading to a playful examination of their relationships with humans. Reveille, the veteran horse, begins to tell a storied past involving his Major and the complexities of human emotions, love, and misunderstandings. The interactions among the horses are laced with wit and perspective on human behaviors, setting the stage for an exploration of themes related to love and societal expectations through their unique vantage point."
