| Commentary | Don Quixote prevents Sancho from continuing whipping himself.
Accurate representation. Excellent drawing and engraving in both figures; Sancho's one is very remarkable. "Acudió Don Quijote luego al son de la lastimada voz y del golpe del riguroso azote, y asiendo del torcido cabestro que le servía de corbacho a Sancho, le dijo: No permita la suerte, Sancho amigo, que por el gusto mío pierdas tú la vida" (71:2). |
| Notes | 1 - Clearly influenced by Vanderbank's same episode illustration (London: Tonson, 1738). |
