Summary

And the king said to her: "Teodor, would
it please you to tell me what knowledge
you have acquired from all the different
kinds of learning in the world?".
And the maiden answered and told him:
[...] and I sing [the] tenor and contras and
other songs and many romances set to
music; and I know how to compose
many old and new canticas and set them
well to music: and I can play the lute and
vihuela with most marvellous harmonies.
