Pierre is walking through the quiet country lanes outside his home one fine morning when he looks into a field and sees a young couple having sex not very far away.
"Ah, young love!" he says to himself and starts to walk on when he notices something wrong. The girl is very pale and not moving at all.
"Sacre bleu! That is Henry and he is having sex with a corpse!"
Angrily Pierre runs along the lane until he reaches town where he finds the local gendarme. "You must come quickly. I have seen Henry outside of town having sex with a corpse!"
The gendarme is shocked. "Henry has done many things we have forgiven him for, but this time he has gone too far!"
Pierre and the gendarme start heading out of town, but their conversation has been heard and some of the townspeople are following them, the story spreading quickly.
On the edge of town they encounter the mayor.
"What is this," he asks, looking at the growing angry crowd.
"Pierre has seen Henry out in the fields having sex with a corpse!" replies the gendarme?
"What? This time Henry has gone too far. We will lock him up and throw away the key!"
And with that the mayor leads the crowd to where Pierre first saw Henry.
Sure enough, Henry is still pounding away at the pale, unmoving girl.
The mayor and the gendarme jump the low fence and run to Henry. The crowds sees much angry arm waving and shouting, but eventually the gendarme and the mayor return, laughing.
"Are you not going to arrest him?" Pierre asks indignantly.
"No," replies the mayor. "The girl is not dead. She is English!"

Dying to live, living to die.
