| Back | Nevertheless, there is one thing which has occurred to me, and that is that thou didst ill describe her beauty to me, for, as well as I recollect, thou saidst that her eyes were pearls; but eyes that are like pearls are rather the eyes of a sea-bream than of a lady, and I am persuaded that Dulcinea's must be green emeralds, full and soft, with two rainbows for eyebrows; take away those pearls from her eyes and transfer them to her teeth; for beyond a doubt, Sancho, thou hast taken the one for the other, the eyes for the teeth." |

| Front | Mas, con todo esto, he caído, Sancho, en una cosa, y es que me pintaste mal su hermosura, porque, si mal no me acuerdo, dijiste que tenía los ojos de perlas, y los ojos que parecen de perlas antes son de besugo que de dama; y, a lo que yo creo, los de Dulcinea deben ser de verdes esmeraldas, rasgados, con dos celestiales arcos que les sirven de cejas; y esas perlas quítalas de los ojos y pásalas a los dientes, que sin duda te trocaste, Sancho, tomando los ojos por los dientes. |
