Panel 3 of Page 2 of Cantiga 187

The King asked the castellan about the castle and told him he would behead him if he lied. The castellan informed him that fifteen hungry men held it. The King of Granada immediately rallied his troops and headed for the castle. He forced the castellan to demand its surrender, but the defenders refused to give in.
