| Commentary | The innkeeper's wife, her daughter and Maritornes pretend to be very afflicted when don Quixote leaves the inn "enchanted" into a cage on an ox-cart.
Also Sancho, officers of justice and others. Very remarkable illustration; notice Cruikshank's personal caricature style with quick and free etching lines; the expressions of the main characters are very worth noting. |
| Notes | 1 - Although the illus. has been placed in chapter 46:1, it refers to chapter 47:1.
2 - Print with some foxing. |
