Opening the book, Don Quixote finds a sonnet written in a very fine hand. He reads it aloud so that Sancho can hear it. The illustration is set in a decorative and architectural frame, complete with the errant knight’s arms (lance, sword, helmet, and buckler) and donkey heads. Signed by R. Corbould (illustrator) and C. Warren (engraver), dated 1796. Part 1, ch. 23.
