Note 69 — EL CAPITÁN VENENO[4]

Reading edition

justificola: this order with la at the end is almost a mannerism with Alarcón. Inconsistently, the Academy leaves the marked accent here, but marks the preterit in díjole, as it does all verb forms whose accented syllable, by reason of the post-placing of pronouns, comes to occupy proparoxytonic or anteproparoxytonic position: toma, tómalo, tómatelo; tomar, tomarlo, tomárselo; tomando, tomándolo, tomándoselo, etc.
