| Back | The first time he was brought back to us slung across the back of an ass, and belaboured all over; and the second time he came in an ox-cart, shut up in a cage, in which he persuaded himself he was enchanted, and the poor creature was in such a state that the mother that bore him would not have known him; lean, yellow, with his eyes sunk deep in the cells of his skull; so that to bring him round again, ever so little, cost me more than six hundred eggs, as God knows, and all the world, and my hens too, that won't let me tell a lie." |

| Front | La vez primera nos le volvieron atravesado sobre un jumento, molido a palos. La segunda vino en un carro de bueyes, metido y encerrado en una jaula, adonde él se daba a entender que estaba encantado; y venía tal el triste, que no le conociera la madre que le parió: flaco, amarillo, los ojos hundidos en los últimos camaranchones del celebro, que, para haberle de volver algún tanto en sí, gasté más de seiscientos huevos, como lo sabe Dios y todo el mundo, y mis gallinas, que no me dejaran mentir. |
