| Back | Don Quixote, then, having risen to his feet, trembling from head to foot like a man dosed with mercury, said in a hurried, agitated voice, "The place I am in, the presence in which I stand, and the respect I have and always have had for the profession to which your worship belongs, hold and bind the hands of my just indignation; and as well for these reasons as because I know, as everyone knows, that a gownsman's weapon is the same as a woman's, the tongue, I will with mine engage in equal combat with your worship, from whom one might have expected good advice instead of foul abuse. |

| Front | Levantado, pues, en pie don Quijote, temblando de los pies a la cabeza como azogado, con presurosa y turbada lengua, dijo: -El lugar donde estoy, y la presencia ante quien me hallo y el respeto que siempre tuve y tengo al estado que vuesa merced profesa tienen y atan las manos de mi justo enojo; y, así por lo que he dicho como por saber que saben todos que las armas de los togados son las mesmas que las de la mujer, que son la lengua, entraré con la mía en igual batalla con vuesa merced, de quien se debía esperar antes buenos consejos que infames vituperios. |
