FOOTNOTES:[1]Imparcial de Madrid, December 3, 1901.[2]Notices of the appearance of this paper and of Sanz's resignation will be found inLa Guíaof January 3 and 4, 1849.[3]The original manuscript of this play is preserved in the Biblioteca Nacional at Madrid. At the end of Act I appears the date Junio 13, 1854. At the end of the second Julio 5, 1854, and on the last sheet Setiembre 25, 1854.[4]All the papers relating to Sanz's diplomatic career are preserved in the Archivo del Ministerio del Estado. They were collected at the instance of his "widow," who desired that she be accorded a pension in keeping with the dignity of the posts held by her distinguished husband. The papers are filed underPersonal Español, Letra S, Año 1853. Número 159. Expediente relativo a Sanz, don Eulogio Florentino.[5]Pedro is Don Pedro Calvo Asensio, the editor-in-chief ofLa Iberia, in which the poem first appeared. It was later republished in 1881 in the "Almanaque deLa Iberia."[6]Cf.La Iberia, May 22, 1857.[7]"Obras En Verso y Prosa de Don Francisco Zea." Madrid, pp. 552, 556.[8]Philip II had married his daughter, the infanta Catalina, to Charles Emmanuel of Savoy.[9]Avisos de 11 de Diciembre de 1640.[10]No less a person than the Attorney General wrote to Osuna of a prominent person at court, "Your Excellency may be quite sure of M. He wants a carpet; send him two, and pray God that some one else does not give him three."[11]In the play there is a trifling anachronism according to which we are to believe that in 1643 Quevedo had not yet received this honor.[12]The first volume of Fernández-Guerra's splendid edition appeared in 1852.[13]I speak especially of Don Juan Perez de Guzman and Don Julio Nombela, both of whom have been kind enough to give me all the data at their disposal.[14]Sem. Erud., III, pp. 1-62.[15]Ibid., XV, pp. 215-245.[16]It should be noted here that Quevedo's journey to Lisbon to bring back the proofs of Margarita's story is an ingenious fiction concocted by Sanz. In reality Quevedo was a prisoner in San Marcos de León.[17]V de Junio de 1639;Sem. Erud., XXXI, p. 25.
