Libre de les Dones mes verament dit de Consells profitosos y Saludables…Valence : Juan de Arcos, 1561.
Ce « Livre des dames », ou « Miroir », est l’ouvrage le plus célèbre de son auteur. Un narrateur y fait le récit de ses mésaventures avec les femmes. Seules deux femmes trouvent grâce à ses yeux et échappent à l'humour fortement teinté de misogynie : son épouse, et la Vierge Marie. L'édition originale avait paru à Valence, en 1531.
L'écrasante majorité des exemplaires connus en institutions sont conservés en Espagne ; aucun ne semble se trouver aux États-Unis.
