    Friar Rush lang nds Broder Rusche , lang de Bruder Rausch , lang gmq Broder Ruus is the title of a medieval Low German legend, surviving in a 1488 edition in verse form. During the 16th and 17th centuries, numerous High German languages High German , Scandinavian Danish and Swedish , Dutch and English translations and adaptations in Volksbuch or chap book form were printed. The first High German edition dates to 1515, printed in Strasbourg Strassburg . The story along with those of Till Eulenspiegel , Faust and Solomon and Marcolf Marcolf was among the most successful popular literature in 16th century Germany . The various adaptations vary in their style and focus, some intending to set a moral example or criticize excesses in monastic life, others simply intending to amuse the reader. A connection between Friar Rush and H dekin , a kobold figure of German folklore, was suggested by the Shakespeare scholar George Lyman Kittredge , ref Kittredge 1900 , noted in Frank Wadleigh Chandler, The Literature of Roguery 1907, vol. I 56ff . ref who noted the connection has been made in Reginald Scott s Discoverie of Witchcraft , 1584.
