This March I am visiting the University of Cordoba, representing our
liberal arts college consortium that is located there, and they have
asked me to give a scholarly talk (in English!). I thought English
poems about Golden Age Spain would be a fun topic.

So: I'd be grateful for some help in putting together a short list of
16th-c.  English poetry about Spain.  I know the obvious, such as
Wyatt's "Tagus Farewell" and the antics of Grantorto, but hope some
of you may think of lyrics with Spanish references or narratives that
deal with relations with Spain (e.g. Ralegh on the Cadiz expedition,
though that's prose).

Many thanks,

Susanne
