| Back | While all present stood amazed at this strange occurrence the general said, "At any rate your tears will not allow me to keep my oath; live, fair Ana Felix, all the years that heaven has allotted you; but these rash insolent fellows must pay the penalty of the crime they have committed;" and with that he gave orders to have the two Turks who had killed his two soldiers hanged at once at the yard-arm. The viceroy, however, begged him earnestly not to hang them, as their behaviour savoured rather of madness than of bravado. |

| Front | Admirados del estraño caso todos los presentes, el general dijo: -Una por una vuestras lágrimas no me dejarán cumplir mi juramento: vivid, hermosa Ana Félix, los años de vida que os tiene determinados el cielo, y lleven la pena de su culpa los insolentes y atrevidos que la cometieron. Y mandó luego ahorcar de la entena a los dos turcos que a sus dos soldados habían muerto; pero el virrey le pidió encarecidamente no los ahorcase, pues más locura que valentía había sido la suya. |
