Note 46 — Chapter V · The Grateful Dead and The Ransomed Woman.

This variant is of the same type as Jean de Calais II. and VII.,46 resembling the latter more than the former in details. The three are sufficiently unlike, however, to make any immediate relationship quite out of the question, even did not geography forbid. As in Hungarian II., Oliver, Lope de Vega, Calderon, Jean de Calais V. and VIII., and Norwegian I., the heroine is an English princess, a point of interest, but not of much importance.
