In Mariposas, there are two different types of card that copy a previously played card.

One copies a card you have previously played, the other copies an card an opponent has previously played.

Can I chain these together? Can I use a copy a card I previously played to copy the "copy an opponent's card" I used earlier to get access to my opponents cards again?
