own  tale  where  in  Spanish  occurs  that  of
Osmin  y  Daraxa.  In  the  Latin  sequel,  Ale-
man's  second  part  was  followed,  but  in  place
of  the  story  of  Dorido  y  Clorinia  was  another,
while  the  episode  of  Claudio  y  Borotea  was  not
touched.  This  volume  fell  short  of  ending
with  the  Spanish,  for  Guzman,  getting  no  further
than  his  second  marriage  and  his  removal  to
Madrid,  breaks  off  abruptly;  — Sed  expectas forte
ut  narrem  que  mihi  Madriti  evenerint?  Narraho
turn  quum  mortem  meam  ipse  narraho.  Nunc
valete  ^  plaudite.  In  the  third  part,  which  did
appear  when  Ens  if  not  Guzman  was  dead,  the
picaro  after  his  release  from  the  galleys  turns
actor  and  finally  becomes  a  hermit,  a  conclusion
manifestly  drawn  from  the  German  redaction.
