Thus did Sancho soliloquise on the day of their departure, as Don Quixote, who had the night before taken leave of the duke and duchess, coming out made his appearance at an early hour in full armour in the courtyard of the castle.
Esto pasaba entre sí Sancho el día de la partida; y, saliendo don Quijote, habiéndose despedido la noche antes de los duques, una mañana se presentó armado en la plaza del castillo.
