De Y I Don Collecting Pack Saddle Ass Caparison

Back All laughed to see Don Fernando going from one to another collecting the votes, and whispering to them to give him their private opinion whether the treasure over which there had been so much fighting was a pack-saddle or a caparison; but after he had taken the votes of those who knew Don Quixote, he said aloud, "The fact is, my good fellow, that I am tired collecting such a number of opinions, for I find that there is not one of whom I ask what I desire to know, who does not tell me that it is absurd to say that this is the pack-saddle of an ass, and not the caparison of a horse, nay, of a thoroughbred horse; so you must submit, for, in spite of you and your ass, this is a caparison and no pack-saddle, and you have stated and proved your case very badly."
Front Y, después que hubo tomado los votos de aquellos que a don Quijote conocían, dijo en alta voz: -El caso es, buen hombre, que ya yo estoy cansado de tomar tantos pareceres, porque veo que a ninguno pregunto lo que deseo saber que no me diga que es disparate el decir que ésta sea albarda de jumento, sino jaez de caballo, y aun de caballo castizo; y así, habréis de tener paciencia, porque, a vuestro pesar y al de vuestro asno, éste es jaez y no albarda, y vos habéis alegado y probado muy mal de vuestra parte.
