Commentary After being caged, don Quixote quotes some of the ways by which knights are taken away usually; "porque siempre los suelen llevar por los aires, con estraña ligereza, encerrados en alguna parda y escura nube, o en algún carro de fuego, o ya sobre algún hipogrifo o otra bestia semejante" (47:1). 
Notes 1 - Same initial and wooden block first used for Paris: Dubochet, 1836-37.
