"Suddenly there is presented to his sight a strong castle or gorgeous palace with walls of massy gold, turrets of diamond and gates of jacinth; in short, so marvellous is its structure that though the materials of which it is built are nothing less than diamonds, carbuncles, rubies, pearls, gold, and emeralds, the workmanship is still more rare.
Acullá de improviso se le descubre un fuerte castillo o vistoso alcázar, cuyas murallas son de macizo oro, las almenas de diamantes, las puertas de jacintos; finalmente, él es de tan admirable compostura que, con ser la materia de que está formado no menos que de diamantes, de carbuncos, de rubíes, de perlas, de oro y de esmeraldas, es de más estimación su hechura.
