| Back | I commend your mode of entertainment, and thank you for the kindness of your invitation; and if I can serve you, you may command me with full confidence of being obeyed, for my profession is none other than to show myself grateful, and ready to serve persons of all conditions, but especially persons of quality such as your appearance indicates; and if, instead of taking up, as they probably do, but a small space, these nets took up the whole surface of the globe, I would seek out new worlds through which to pass, so as not to break them; and that ye may give some degree of credence to this exaggerated language of mine, know that it is no less than Don Quixote of La Mancha that makes this declaration to you, if indeed it be that such a name has reached your ears." |

| Front | Alabo el asumpto de vuestros entretenimientos, y el de vuestros ofrecimientos agradezco; y, si os puedo servir, con seguridad de ser obedecidas me lo podéis mandar; porque no es ésta la profesión mía, sino de mostrarme agradecido y bienhechor con todo género de gente, en especial con la principal que vuestras personas representa; y, si como estas redes, que deben de ocupar algún pequeño espacio, ocuparan toda la redondez de la tierra, buscara yo nuevos mundos por do pasar sin romperlas; y porque deis algún crédito a esta mi exageración, ved que os lo promete, por lo menos, don Quijote de la Mancha, si es que ha llegado a vuestros oídos este nombre. |
