Anselmo believed him, and to afford him an opportunity more free and less liable to surprise, he resolved to absent himself from his house for eight days, betaking himself to that of a friend of his who lived in a village not far from the city; and, the better to account for his departure to Camilla, he so arranged it that the friend should send him a very pressing invitation.
Creyóle Anselmo, y para dalle comodidad más segura y menos sobresaltada, determinó de hacer ausencia de su casa por ocho días, yéndose a la de un amigo suyo, que estaba en una aldea, no lejos de la ciudad, con el cual amigo concertó que le enviase a llamar con muchas veras, para tener ocasión con Camila de su partida.
