Question

When I heard them talking of bull-fights taking place, and of javelin games, and of acting plays, I asked my brother, who is a year younger than myself, to tell me what sort of things these were, and many more that I had never seen; he explained them to me as well as he could, but the only effect was to kindle in me a still stronger desire to see them.

Accepted Answer

Cuando oía decir que corrían toros y jugaban cañas, y se representaban comedias, preguntaba a mi hermano, que es un año menor que yo, que me dijese qué cosas eran aquéllas y otras muchas que yo no he visto; él me lo declaraba por los mejores modos que sabía, pero todo era encenderme más el deseo de verlo.
