Contes et nouvelles en vers

Contes et nouvelles en vers () is an anthology of various ribald short stories and novellas collected and versified from prose by Jean de La Fontaine. Claude Barbin of Paris published the collection in 1665.
La Fontaine drew from several French and Italian works of the 15th and 16th centuries, among them "The Decameron" of Giovanni Boccaccio, Ludovico Ariosto's "Orlando Furioso", Antoine de la Sale's collection "Cent Nouvelles Nouvelles", and the work of Bonaventure des Périers.
