Note 1 — DON JAIME DE ARAGON.
Reading edition

It was St. Michael’s day in the morning, and the king called the principal of them into his tent, and thus said to them:—“Who will be the knight who, to show his prowess and to cover his name with glory in succeeding generations, will go up for me to the Snowy Sierra1.”
