Note 37 — Chapter III · —The Earliest Stations and their Sequence

“Verdadera Informacion de la Tierra Sancta,” by Ant. de Aranda, Guardian de Sant Francisco de Alcalà de Henares. The preface is dated 1530 from the Franciscan monastery of Mount Sion, but the first edition of the book, it is interesting to note, was printed in 1533, by Miguel de Eguya, the printer who harboured St Ignatius at Alcalà, and brother of the Diego de Eguya who became a Jesuit, and who was the saint’s confessor down to the time of his death. I have only had access to the edition of Toledo, 1550.
