| Back | Both mistress and maid took care to give him time and opportunity to get away, and taking advantage of it he made his escape, and at once went in quest of Lothario, and it would be impossible to describe how he embraced him when he found him, and the things he said to him in the joy of his heart, and the praises he bestowed upon Camilla; all which Lothario listened to without being able to show any pleasure, for he could not forget how deceived his friend was, and how dishonourably he had wronged him; and though Anselmo could see that Lothario was not glad, still he imagined it was only because he had left Camilla wounded and had been himself the cause of it; and so among other things he told him not to be distressed about Camilla's accident, for, as they had agreed to hide it from him, the wound was evidently trifling; and that being so, he had no cause for fear, but should henceforward be of good cheer and rejoice with him, seeing that by his means and adroitness he found himself raised to the greatest height of happiness that he could have ventured to hope for, and desired no better pastime than making verses in praise of Camilla that would preserve her name for all time to come. |

| Front | Todo lo cual escuchó Lotario sin poder dar muestras de alguna alegría, porque se le representaba a la memoria cuán engañado estaba su amigo y cuán injustamente él le agraviaba. Y, aunque Anselmo veía que Lotario no se alegraba, creía ser la causa por haber dejado a Camila herida y haber él sido la causa; y así, entre otras razones, le dijo que no tuviese pena del suceso de Camila, porque, sin duda, la herida era ligera, pues quedaban de concierto de encubrírsela a él; y que, según esto, no había de qué temer, sino que de allí adelante se gozase y alegrase con él, pues por su industria y medio él se veía levantado a la más alta felicidad que acertara desearse, y quería que no fuesen otros sus entretenimientos que en hacer versos en alabanza de Camila, que la hiciesen eterna en la memoria de los siglos venideros. |
