100   I,  TransPre|           a reader now-a-days, and Cervantes often takes it for granted
101   I,  TransPre|        insight into the meaning of Cervantes such as no commentator can
102   I,  TransPre|          as the one behind it that Cervantes had in his mind's eye, and
103   I,  TransPre|       misses the point aimed at by Cervantes. It is the mean, prosaic,
