This seems to be a nod towards the Spanish Inquisition. This play was written during the time of the Inquisition which had a history of declaring plays heretical. "The Inquisition, which had begun in 1478 has control over the heresies against Catholocism." The line from the play seems to be directly in line with the inquisition's beliefs. Had this play not conformed to that it may not be as prevalent or even known today. That raises the question, how did the Spanish Inquisition affect plays at the time?
