Note 42 — II
Reading edition
Bartolomé de Carranza mentions (Documentos inéditos, vol. XI, p. 279) Castro's muddle-headed knack of misunderstanding what was said to him, and his propensity to argue points, imagining that his opponents had said the very reverse of what they had said. As to Castro's lack of expository power, Luis de Leon states, 'tiene falta de lengua' (Documentos inéditos, vol. X, p. 327).
