Abstract We do not know the dates of Diego de San Pedro's birth or death. Suggested dates for his birth—such as Gili y Gaya's “debió de nacer hacia 1430”—are pure speculation, based only on the subtraction of a likely figure from 1459, in which year documents speak of “el bachiller Diego de San Pedro, teniente de Peñafiel”.

To judge, however, from its contents, it must be old. There is no other version in Judeo-Spanish, either.” 1 I have slightly simplified Attias's transcription. Most of the peculiarly Judeo-Spanish forms are self-explanatory; tarjé; (line 8) = traje; caronale (last ine) = lcarnale. 2 In effect, in a text taken down from oral tradition, “Galeana” and “Galiana” are practically identical. (Curiously, in the Hebrew translation Attias writes “Galiana”). 3 See M. de Riquer, Los cantares de gesta franceses (Madrid 1952), 209–21 (French transl., Paris 1957, 185–94) and the references given. 4 R.
