Note 412 — Chapter XIII
Reading edition
“He had a great deal of inventive faculty, and was much given to making inventions and entremeses for festivals,” etc. (Crónica del Condestable Don Alvaro de Luna, ed. Flores, Madrid, 1784, 4to, Título 68.) It is not to be supposed that these were like the gay farces that have since passed under the same name, but there can be little doubt that they were poetical and were exhibited. The Constable was beheaded in 1453.
