| Back | My desire was to bring to life again knight-errantry, now dead, and for some time past, stumbling here, falling there, now coming down headlong, now raising myself up again, I have carried out a great portion of my design, succouring widows, protecting maidens, and giving aid to wives, orphans, and minors, the proper and natural duty of knights-errant; and, therefore, because of my many valiant and Christian achievements, I have been already found worthy to make my way in print to well-nigh all, or most, of the nations of the earth. |

| Front | Quise resucitar la ya muerta andante caballería, y ha muchos días que, tropezando aquí, cayendo allí, despeñándome acá y levantándome acullá, he cumplido gran parte de mi deseo, socorriendo viudas, amparando doncellas y favoreciendo casadas, huérfanos y pupilos, propio y natural oficio de caballeros andantes; y así, por mis valerosas, muchas y cristianas hazañas he merecido andar ya en estampa en casi todas o las más naciones del mundo. |
