El En Don Leave Lawful Sancho Los Es

Back "I have never been in the habit," said Don Quixote, "of taking spoil of those whom I vanquish, nor is it the practice of chivalry to take away their horses and leave them to go on foot, unless indeed it be that the victor have lost his own in the combat, in which case it is lawful to take that of the vanquished as a thing won in lawful war; therefore, Sancho, leave this horse, or ass, or whatever thou wilt have it to be; for when its owner sees us gone hence he will come back for it."
Front -Nunca yo acostumbro -dijo don Quijote- despojar a los que venzo, ni es uso de caballería quitarles los caballos y dejarlos a pie, si ya no fuese que el vencedor hubiese perdido en la pendencia el suyo; que, en tal caso, lícito es tomar el del vencido, como ganado en guerra lícita. Así que, Sancho, deja ese caballo, o asno, o lo que tú quisieres que sea, que, como su dueño nos vea alongados de aquí, volverá por él.
