Note 241 — III The Sixteenth Century [1502-80]
Reading edition
An unfortunate interpolation by the 1834 editors in the rubric of the Auto da Sibila Cassandra was largely responsible for the belief that his patroness was not Queen Lianor but King Manuel’s mother D. Beatriz.
Yet the rubric of the Auto dos Quatro Tempos says clearly that a sobredita senhora is King Manuel’s sister.
