Another example will make the same thing plain: a man is standing with his back turned, another comes up and strikes him, and after striking him takes to flight, without waiting an instant, and the other pursues him but does not overtake him; he who received the blow received an offence, but not an insult, because an insult must be maintained.
Y lo mesmo confirmará otro ejemplo: está uno vuelto de espaldas, llega otro y dale de palos, y en dándoselos huye y no espera, y el otro le sigue y no alcanza; este que recibió los palos, recibió agravio, mas no afrenta, porque la afrenta ha de ser sustentada.
