Note 234b — Chapter XV · MAY 1–13, 1838
Reading edition
Borrow pays a magnificent and well-deserved tribute to this queen among landladies. (The Bible in Spain, pages 256–7.) She was always his friend and frequently his counsellor, thinking nothing of the risk she ran in standing by him during periods of danger. She refused all inducements to betray him to his enemies, and, thoroughly deserved the eulogy that Borrow pronounced upon her.
