Sancho was astonished, and those who stood by made believe to be so too, and turning to the majordomo he said to him, "What we have got to do first, and it must be done at once, is to put Doctor Recio in the lock-up; for if anyone wants to kill me it is he, and by a slow death and the worst of all, which is hunger."
Quedó atónito Sancho, y mostraron quedarlo asimismo los circunstantes; y, volviéndose al mayordomo, le dijo: -Lo que agora se ha de hacer, y ha de ser luego, es meter en un calabozo al doctor Recio; porque si alguno me ha de matar, ha de ser él, y de muerte adminícula y pésima, como es la de la hambre.
