  1. Many years ago in Salamanca, there was a poor student called Don Vicent, he begged money in the street. Don Vicent found a ring and returned home. A beutiful maiden in the Avellano Fountain. And she cautivate Don Vicent's heart. He talk she but she didn't look at him.
    In my opinion when she doesn't talk him is because she was shy and should talk with Don Vicent.

  9. Hi!! I'm Iván Garrido of 2ºESO-B, and this is my story!!
    I was a maiden in the tabern. Many years ago I fell in love with Don Vincent. He didn't know about me. When he went to the tabern I always saw him and he didn't look at me. I was very shy. Because of that I didn't say anything to him. I wanted to know him.

  15. At first I was the companion of Don Vincent and accompanied him everywhere that he traveled to collect money for some food and acomodation for one night. When he played the guitar I was singing songs to the rhythm of the guitar. I always said that we create a group but he didn´t want so I got angry and did not want to accompany him. I had created a group and he was continued to collect money but now I don´t knew nothing about he.

  19. Hi I'm Gabriel Fernandez:
    I am a scribe, when I worked at my last job in Salamanca, I saw a poor student playing guitar and singing, every day, called Don Vincent. One day I went to give him the money he had on him.
    I started a conversation with Don Vicente:
    Play the guitar very well.
    - Oh, Thank you so much Good Man
    - Don Vicente, why are you playing guitar and singing every day?
    - To pay for my studies and to stop eating in a convent.
    - Ah, sorry for you but I have no money to give you, good luck, I wish you well!
    - Thanks, see you tomorrow
