Hay que ver la nobleza y arrogancia de su
figura cuando me lo encasquetan una armadura fina, o ropillas y
balandranes de raso, y me lo ponen _haciendo_ el duque de Gandía, al
sentir la corazonada de hacerse santo, o el marqués de Bedmar ante el
Consejo de Venecia, o Juan de Lanuza en el patíbulo, o el gran Alba
poniéndoles las peras a cuarto a los flamencos.

One must see the nobility and haughtiness of his bearing when they deck him out in fine armor—or satin doublets and cloaks—and cast him as the Duke of Gandía at the moment he feels the calling to become a saint, or as the Marquis of Bedmar facing the Council of Venice, or Juan de Lanuza on the scaffold, or the great Duke of Alba bringing the Flemings to heel.
