| Back | Verily and truly all those who find pleasure in histories like this ought show their gratitude to Cide Hamete, its original author, for the scrupulous care he has taken to set before us all its minute particulars, not leaving anything, however trifling it may be, that he does not make clear and plain. He portrays the thoughts, he reveals the fancies, he answers implied questions, clears up doubts, sets objections at rest, and, in a word, makes plain the smallest points the most inquisitive can desire to know. |

| Front | Real y verdaderamente, todos los que gustan de semejantes historias como ésta deben de mostrarse agradecidos a Cide Hamete, su autor primero, por la curiosidad que tuvo en contarnos las semínimas della, sin dejar cosa, por menuda que fuese, que no la sacase a luz distintamente: pinta los pensamientos, descubre las imaginaciones, responde a las tácitas, aclara las dudas, resuelve los argumentos; finalmente, los átomos del más curioso deseo manifiesta. ¡Oh autor celebérrimo! |
