Al Y God Feet I Lo Dios Sancho

Back "Be that as it may," said Sancho, "'pledges don't distress a good payer,' and 'he whom God helps does better than he who gets up early,' and 'it's the tripes that carry the feet and not the feet the tripes;' I mean to say that if God gives me help and I do my duty honestly, no doubt I'll govern better than a gerfalcon.
Front -Haya lo que hubiere -replicó Sancho-, que al buen pagador no le duelen prendas, y más vale al que Dios ayuda que al que mucho madruga, y tripas llevan pies, que no pies a tripas; quiero decir que si Dios me ayuda, y yo hago lo que debo con buena intención, sin duda que gobernaré mejor que un gerifalte.
