Roger L'Estrange [translator] : The visions of Don Francisco de Quevedo

'and then to my boat again and home, reading and making an end of the book I lately bought, a merry Satyre called "The Visions", translated from Spanish by Le Strange; wherein there are many pretty things, but the translation is, as to the rendering it in English expression, the best that I ever saw, it being impossible almost to conceive that it should be a translation.'

Century: 1600-1699     Reader/Listener/Group: Samuel Pepys      Print: Book
