Judge Richard, known as the hanging judge has never acquitted a man in his life. He holds the record of three hundred convictions a multitude…

Juana is far from the ideal woman but Lope playfully writes that he finds her attractive even if she has some ugly parts to her. Lope parodies the Petrarchan ideal by crafting his poetry from a desire for an unideal lady. Unlike Garcilaso’s lady, Juana is given a name, however her common Spanish name, added to the fact that she is a washerwoman, seeks to parody the convention further and here ‘idealized female beauty is subverted through the glorification of a more commonplace feminine object.’…
