Teresa Panza answers to her husband, Sancho, about his second sally with don Quixote: "Advertid que Sanchico tiene ya quince años cabales, y es razón que vaya á la escuela [...]. Mirad, también, que Mari Sancha vuestra hija no se morirá si la casamos" (5:2). Large size figures, all in the foreground; well-detailed drawing and engraving; Sancho's figure is excellent. |
