Title: HE LOOKED NARROWLY AT EVERY WOMAN HE MET
Period: 1850-1900;
Geographic: Spain; Europe; Plains of La Mancha
Description: Don Quixote and Sancho Panza return to their village, nearing the end of their journey. That day and night of travelling pass without any events worth relating save that in the day Quixote used the light to try and find his lady, the disenchanted Dulcinea in his way. And as they continued along the road back to his village, Quixote looked narrowly at every woman he met, to see if she were Dulcinea del Toboso, holding it for infallible that Merlin's promises (that Quixote would undo the enchantment upon Dulcinea) would not lie.
