Question

As soon as I saw him I asked the reason of so cruel a flagellation. The boor replied that he was flogging him because he was his servant and because of carelessness that proceeded rather from dishonesty than stupidity; on which this boy said, 'Senor, he flogs me only because I ask for my wages.'

Accepted Answer

El amo replicó no sé qué arengas y disculpas, las cuales, aunque de mí fueron oídas, no fueron admitidas. En resolución, yo le hice desatar, y tomé juramento al villano de que le llevaría consigo y le pagaría un real sobre otro, y aun sahumados.
