I am very glad my lady the duchess has written to my wife Teresa Panza and sent her the present your worship speaks of; and I will strive to show myself grateful when the time comes; kiss her hands for me, and tell her I say she has not thrown it into a sack with a hole in it, as she will see in the end.
De que mi señora la duquesa haya escrito a mi mujer Teresa Panza y enviádole el presente que vuestra merced dice, estoy muy satisfecho, y procuraré de mostrarme agradecido a su tiempo: bésele vuestra merced las manos de mi parte, diciendo que digo yo que no lo ha echado en saco roto, como lo verá por la obra.
