| Back | "The priest stood waiting for the answer of Luscinda, who for a long time withheld it; and just as I thought she was taking out the dagger to save her honour, or struggling for words to make some declaration of the truth on my behalf, I heard her say in a faint and feeble voice, 'I will:' Don Fernando said the same, and giving her the ring they stood linked by a knot that could never be loosed. The bridegroom then approached to embrace his bride; and she, pressing her hand upon her heart, fell fainting in her mother's arms. |

| Front | »Estaba esperando el cura la respuesta de Luscinda, que se detuvo un buen espacio en darla, y, cuando yo pensé que sacaba la daga para acreditarse, o desataba la lengua para decir alguna verdad o desengaño que en mi provecho redundase, oigo que dijo con voz desmayada y flaca: ''Sí quiero''; y lo mesmo dijo don Fernando; y, dándole el anillo, quedaron en disoluble nudo ligados. |
