Primero es el rey despues el principe y despues el duque
conde is down the list. conde is between the marqués and the vizconde
conde also means, the boss of a gang of field workers.
By the way, I liked the way you interpreted encaprichado as taking a fancy
In that case, the most likely translation would be Count, at least according to this article on Wikipedia. Sounds like a very interesting story . . . maybe my library has it!

The sentance is from the book La halconera de Hita by Beatriz Lagos. It is set in Spain about 1450 more or less. It is from the prospective of the author that lived through la guerra sucia in Argentina and lost her husband. Use that perspective with the inquisition in Spain in Siglo 1500 to see how her thought give life to the story.

Well, the dictionary lists both. Don't you think we'd have to know more about the story and the country it's set in, to determine which translation should be used? Or am I missing something?
