Note 722 — APPENDIX
Reading edition
The Spanish translator of Eufrosina apparently derived this name from musical notes (= a sung romance), since he translates un romance de sol la, Eufr. i. 3; iii. 2 (Oríg. de la Novela, iii. 77 and 110), but even he would not derive it from the selah of the Psalms (T. Braga, Hist. da Litt. Port. i (1914), p. 205). In the Spanish solao in Obras de Dom Manoel de Portugal (1605), Bk. XII, pp. 282-7, each singer takes three lines, of which the last two rhyme together.
