Commentary: Notes from Snow 1977: "A further aid to the scholar interested in the classification of the CSM. D. here focusses upon both the aggressive actions and the strong language used by the Virgin in cantigas 233, 63, 264, 47, 123, 11, 183, 61, 229, 283, 35, 286, 216, 42, 336, 274, and 32. These illustrations help him to show how human and temperamentally well-rounded was the Mediatrix between medieval man and his God."
