[Footnote 193: According to Blanco García (_op. cit._, p. 207), Luis de Leon did not vote, but assigned his proxy to Bartolomé de Medina. This incident occurred, but it happened at a meeting of the _Claustro_ held two days later: see Alonso Getino (_op. cit._, pp. 252-254). Medina seems to have thought that Luis de Leon's chair had not been legally vacated, and that it was not in Luis de Leon's power to say that he would assign it to Castillo.] [Footnote 194: Alonso Getino, _op. cit._, p. 258.] [Footnote 195: Gallardo, _op. cit._, vol. IV, col. 1328: '...y martes a 29 [de enero de 1577] empezó a leer. Hubo gran concurso, &c.'] [Footnote 196: _Monasticon Augustinianum_ (Munich, 1623), p. 208: 'Primam vero lectionem post tenebras ut auspicabatur, pleno concessu ad novitatem evocato, inquit: _Dicebamus hesterna die_.' Blanco García, who quotes this passage (_op. cit._, p. 209, _n._ 1), refers also to p. 119 of a reprint issued at Valladolid in 1890: this reprint I have not seen.] [Footnote 197: Early instances, dating from 1636, are given by Blanco García, _op. cit._, p. 209, _n._ 2. The story first appeared in print in Spain in 1771, when it was given in the fifth volume of Juan Josef Lopez de Sedano, _Parnaso Español_ (Madrid, 1768-1778).] [Footnote 198: C.
