| Back | To which the renegade, without waiting for Zoraida to reply, made answer, "Do not trouble thyself by asking thy daughter Zoraida so many questions, senor, for the one answer I will give thee will serve for all; I would have thee know that she is a Christian, and that it is she who has been the file for our chains and our deliverer from captivity. She is here of her own free will, as glad, I imagine, to find herself in this position as he who escapes from darkness into the light, from death to life, and from suffering to glory." |

| Front | A lo cual el renegado, sin aguardar que Zoraida le respondiese, le respondió: ''No te canses, señor, en preguntar a Zoraida, tu hija, tantas cosas, porque con una que yo te responda te satisfaré a todas; y así, quiero que sepas que ella es cristiana, y es la que ha sido la lima de nuestras cadenas y la libertad de nuestro cautiverio; ella va aquí de su voluntad, tan contenta, a lo que yo imagino, de verse en este estado, como el que sale de las tinieblas a la luz, de la muerte a la vida y de la pena a la gloria''. |
