Don Juan told him that the new history described how Don Quixote, let him be who he might, took part there in a tilting at the ring, utterly devoid of invention, poor in mottoes, very poor in costume, though rich in sillinesses.
Díjole don Juan que aquella nueva historia contaba como don Quijote, sea quien se quisiere, se había hallado en ella en una sortija, falta de invención, pobre de letras, pobrísima de libreas, aunque rica de simplicidades.
