| Back | Who would have said that, after such mighty slashes as your worship gave that unlucky knight-errant, there was coming, travelling post and at the very heels of them, such a great storm of sticks as has fallen upon our shoulders?" "And yet thine, Sancho," replied Don Quixote, "ought to be used to such squalls; but mine, reared in soft cloth and fine linen, it is plain they must feel more keenly the pain of this mishap, and if it were not that I imagine—why do I say imagine?—know of a certainty that all these annoyances are very necessary accompaniments of the calling of arms, I would lay me down here to die of pure vexation." |

| Front | ¿Quién dijera que tras de aquellas tan grandes cuchilladas como vuestra merced dio a aquel desdichado caballero andante, había de venir, por la posta y en seguimiento suyo, esta tan grande tempestad de palos que ha descargado sobre nuestras espaldas? -Aun las tuyas, Sancho -replicó don Quijote-, deben de estar hechas a semejantes nublados; pero las mías, criadas entre sinabafas y holandas, claro está que sentirán más el dolor desta desgracia. Y si no fuese porque imagino..., ¿qué digo imagino?, sé muy cierto, que todas estas incomodidades son muy anejas al ejercicio de las armas, aquí me dejaría morir de puro enojo. |
