Commentary | Reference to the dialogue among don Quixote, the housekeeper and his niece; don Quixote begins to talk about the virtues of a poor gentleman; "Al caballero pobre no le queda otro camino para mostrar que es caballero sino el de la virtud, siendo [...] sobre todo, caritativo; que con dos maravedís que con ánimo alegre dé al pobre se mostrará tan liberal como el que a campana herida da limosna" (6:2). |
