| Back | They were not astonished to see liberated captives or captive Moors, for people on that coast are well used to see both one and the other; but they were astonished at the beauty of Zoraida, which was just then heightened, as well by the exertion of travelling as by joy at finding herself on Christian soil, and relieved of all fear of being lost; for this had brought such a glow upon her face, that unless my affection for her were deceiving me, I would venture to say that there was not a more beautiful creature in the world—at least, that I had ever seen. |

| Front | No se admiraban de ver cautivos libres, ni moros cautivos, porque toda la gente de aquella costa está hecha a ver a los unos y a los otros; pero admirábanse de la hermosura de Zoraida, la cual en aquel instante y sazón estaba en su punto, ansí con el cansancio del camino como con la alegría de verse ya en tierra de cristianos, sin sobresalto de perderse; y esto le había sacado al rostro tales colores que, si no es que la afición entonces me engañaba, osaré decir que más hermosa criatura no había en el mundo; a lo menos, que yo la hubiese visto. |
