Inquisitor-General

Shortly afterwards the new cardinal of Spain was appointed grand inquisitor-general for Castile and Leon.

The vernacular version of Canticles was to be suppressed, if the inquisitor-general and Suprema saw fit.

Inquisitor-general Enguera decided in the affirmative, but referred to Ferdinand for confirmation.

The inquisitor-general adopted the favorite inquisitorial device of evasion.

He represented himself as an alguazil, carrying a vara de justicia and using the name of the inquisitor-general.
