Acabáronse las vísperas, y la fiesta de Santa Ana, y quedó Preciosa algo cansada; pero tan celebrada de hermosa, de aguda y de discreta, y de bailadora, que a corrillos se hablaba della en toda la Corte. De allí a quince días volvió a Madrid con otras tres muchachas, con sonajas y con un baile nuevo, todas apercebidas de romances y de cantarcillos alegres, pero todos honestos. Pusiéronse a bailar a la sombra en la calle de Toledo, y de los que las venían siguiendo se hizo luego un gran corro; y en tanto que bailaban.Acabáronse las vísperas, y la fiesta de Santa Ana, y quedó Preciosa algo cansada; pero tan celebrada de hermosa, de aguda y de discreta, y de bailadora, que a corrillos se hablaba della en toda la Corte.

Prince John held his high festival in the Castle of Ashby. This was not the same building of which the stately ruins still interest the traveller, and which was erected at a later period by the Lord Hastings, High Chamberlain of England, one of the first victims of the tyranny of Richard the Third, and yet better known as one of Shakspeare’s characters than by his historical fame. The castle and town of Ashby, at this time, belonged to Roger de Quincy.Prince John held his high festival in the Castle of Ashby.

About

A sans serif with simple geometric forms and predictably constructed characters, the First Prize typeface is moving in the direction set by Futura Display. The author found it interesting to add a calligraphic touch to this “engineer-style” typeface by introducing italic forms and swashes. First Prize includes two groups of 12 fonts each: one group with slightly narrowed proportions and the other one with narrow proportions. Three styles – normal, vertical italic and slanted cursive – can be applied to both groups. All italics are decorated with swashes on the lowercase letters and entry strokes on the uppercase ones. The typeface offers alternative options for A and N. As a display face, First Prize can be used as supporting in combination with any other typeface in projects of various scale.
