The expression comes from the fact these three children had lived in the palace of the Marquis of Louriçal, in the Palhavã area, in those times outside Lisbon. Today, this building is within the city limits and it is occupied by the Spanish Embassy as the House of the Spanish Ambassador.
The children had a remarkable education in the Santa Cruz Monastery, in Coimbra. Their master was Friar Gaspar da Encarnação, who educated them as religious men according to the late King's wishes.
