ABSTRACT
AS was pointed out above (pp. 134 and 185), the £'1.. first known edition of the Spanish romance Leandro el Bel, the second book of Lepolemo llamado el Cavallero de la Cruz, belongs to the year 1563. Perez Pastor records two different issues! with exactly the same date, 19 May, MDLXIII: one of these is doubtless the first edition. It is true that a recent writer has cited an edition of 15432, in which year an edition of Lepolemo was printed; but that date is impossible for Leandro el Bel, since the dedication mentions Pedro de Lujan's Colloquios matrimoniales (see p. 134, note 1), which first appeared in 1550. The date 1543 is no doubt a misprint for 1563.
