something of the life of Lope de Vega,
and how it influenced his wr"itiing.
Publishers gave himn no peaice from
tlh ir demiands for more plays, said
31r. Castro and bLone wrote almost a
thousand plays in his life time. Many
of these are of little or no value, hav-

4Foreign critics accuse .him of hay-
in; no originality in verse form,

Cstro with an explanation of Lone
"do Vega's particular kind of origin-
a ity. He showed us the proper use
ofthe different verse form,;, stated
Prof. Castra. For Iintance, the
verse forin -which Lope used for solll-
ouies was 'alwys the sonnet.
Hie idealized ini his works the am-
L#,jtots. r*ligiouns sentimrents, and
