Question

The curate took the warrant and saw that what the officer said was true, and that it agreed with Don Quixote's appearance, who, on his part, when he found himself roughly handled by this rascally clown, worked up to the highest pitch of wrath, and all his joints cracking with rage, with both hands seized the officer by the throat with all his might, so that had he not been helped by his comrades he would have yielded up his life ere Don Quixote released his hold.

Accepted Answer

Tomó el mandamiento el cura, y vio como era verdad cuanto el cuadrillero decía, y cómo convenía con las señas con don Quijote; el cual, viéndose tratar mal de aquel villano malandrín, puesta la cólera en su punto y crujiéndole los huesos de su cuerpo, como mejor pudo él, asió al cuadrillero con entrambas manos de la garganta, que, a no ser socorrido de sus compañeros, allí dejara la vida antes que don Quijote la presa.
