Abstract
This is a surprising book of 96 pages. After a prologue there are 17 fables from Aesop, 9 from Samaniego; 2 from Iriarte, 2 from Leonardo da Vinci, 3 from La Fontaine, 2 from Phaedrus, and 3 "de Claris de Florian y de Hartzembuch." A final T of C lays out these contents. Why would Florian and Hartzembusch be put together, and why misspell the latter's name? Every fable here has a "reflexión," and most of these reflections are almost equal in size with their stories. Every fable also has a colored illustration. I find these more helpful than the reflections. I am taken with the last story from Hartzenbusch. A starving Arab in the desert comes upon a pouch and is delighted, thinking that it contains hazel nuts. But upon seeing them, he sadly exclaims "They are only pearls."
