The duke and duchess had no reason to regret the joke that had been played upon Sancho Panza in giving him the government; especially as their majordomo returned the same day, and gave them a minute account of almost every word and deed that Sancho uttered or did during the time; and to wind up with, eloquently described to them the attack upon the island and Sancho's fright and departure, with which they were not a little amused.
No quedaron arrepentidos los duques de la burla hecha a Sancho Panza del gobierno que le dieron; y más, que aquel mismo día vino su mayordomo, y les contó punto por punto, todas casi, las palabras y acciones que Sancho había dicho y hecho en aquellos días, y finalmente les encareció el asalto de la ínsula, y el miedo de Sancho, y su salida, de que no pequeño gusto recibieron.
