Upon my honor, this man fancies the world belongs to him. There you stood, stammering, stupefied, annihilated. One might have supposed the Bastille appeared before you, and that the gigantic Medusa had converted you into stone.
A fe mía que ese hombre se figura que el mundo le pertenece; estáis ahí, balbuceante, estupefacto, aniquilado; se hubiera dicho que la Bastilla se alzaba ante vos y que la gigantesca Medusa os convertía en piedra.
