| Back | That very night our renegade returned and said he had learned that the Moor we had been told of lived in that house, that his name was Hadji Morato, that he was enormously rich, that he had one only daughter the heiress of all his wealth, and that it was the general opinion throughout the city that she was the most beautiful woman in Barbary, and that several of the viceroys who came there had sought her for a wife, but that she had been always unwilling to marry; and he had learned, moreover, that she had a Christian slave who was now dead; all which agreed with the contents of the paper. |

| Front | »Aquella misma noche volvió nuestro renegado, y nos dijo que había sabido que en aquella casa vivía el mesmo moro que a nosotros nos habían dicho que se llamaba Agi Morato, riquísimo por todo estremo, el cual tenía una sola hija, heredera de toda su hacienda, y que era común opinión en toda la ciudad ser la más hermosa mujer de la Berbería; y que muchos de los virreyes que allí venían la habían pedido por mujer, y que ella nunca se había querido casar; y que también supo que tuvo una cristiana cautiva, que ya se había muerto; todo lo cual concertaba con lo que venía en el papel. |
