No sooner had those who were with Don Quixote seen them than they turned about and withdrew to some distance from the road, for they knew that if they stayed some harm might come to them; but Don Quixote with intrepid heart stood his ground, and Sancho Panza shielded himself with Rocinante's hind-quarters.
No los hubieron bien visto los que con don Quijote estaban, cuando, volviendo las espaldas, se apartaron bien lejos del camino, porque conocieron que si esperaban les podía suceder algún peligro; sólo don Quijote, con intrépido corazón, se estuvo quedo, y Sancho Panza se escudó con las ancas de Rocinante.
