Both Foppens and Verdussen editions follow the Inquisition prohibition on the "Sueños" (a satirical prose work). Titles of Verdussen edition (vol. I printed in black and red) are identical to the 1660-1661 Foppens edition, except for the address. The Verdussen edition does not contain "Las tres ultimas Musas".
