| Commentary | Main characters (don Quixote stopping Camacho, the priest and Sancho) following a diagonal to the center of the composition: Quiteria and Basilio.
The illustration, as a whole, is acceptable (good decorative effect), but with some deficient details (see Quiteria's face). |
| Notes | Accompanied by the poem:
"Basilius stabs himself, with mimic pain; Quiteria soon returns her heart again. A Desp'rate Lover always finds success; Fortune she Bold in all affairs will bless". |
