Description: At the inn, Sancho Panza gives Maese Pedro two reales and asks the monkey to tell him what his wife Teresa is doing and how she is spending her time. The monkey leaps on the puppet master’s shoulder and clicks his teeth together, making as if he were whispering the answer to the question in his ear. Maese’s left eye is covered with a patch of green taffeta. Signed by J. Rivelles (illustrator) and A. Blanco y Asensio (engraver). Part 2, ch. 25.
