Description: Chapter XXXIV from the book Preceptos morales para la infancia basados en hechos históricos (Pascual de Sanjuán 1864: 164-169), published in the Barcelonian printing house of Juan Bastinos and aimed to children education. This chapter focuses on the main keys of the domestic economy and the legend of Enrique III’s mantle is used as an argument of authority to explain the mistake of delegating the management of one’s own goods to other people. In the recreation of the anecdote, the interrogation scene unfolds without the slightest trace of violence at the feast of one of the noblemen, where the king just tell them off and deprive them of the intervention on state issues and the administration of his goods.

Key characters: Enrique III
