Departing from doubts about the authorship of El divino Jasón, the article examines the paternity of two autos sacramentales with complementary stylometric approaches. Firstly, an initial round of traditional token-based tests was run. Then, the texts were classified according to the metrical features of their romances. The tests of both approaches attributed El divino Jasón to Mira de Amescua whilst they classified La universal redenciónamong Lope de Vega's work.
Hence, the author seems to leave a footprint in their octosyllables' rhythmic patterns, resembling those revealed by classic stylometric methods. So, together with the contribution to forensic linguistics, this article presents a new method for studying sound-related aspects of the Spanish Golden Age plays.
