"Thou art wrong there, Sancho," said Don Quixote, "for now that we have a suspicion who the owner is, and have him almost before us, we are bound to seek him and make restitution; and if we do not see him, the strong suspicion we have as to his being the owner makes us as guilty as if he were so; and so, friend Sancho, let not our search for him give thee any uneasiness, for if we find him it will relieve mine."
-Engáñaste en eso, Sancho -respondió don Quijote-; que, ya que hemos caído en sospecha de quién es el dueño, cuasi delante, estamos obligados a buscarle y volvérselos; y, cuando no le buscásemos, la vehemente sospecha que tenemos de que él lo sea nos pone ya en tanta culpa como si lo fuese. Así que, Sancho amigo, no te dé pena el buscalle, por la que a mí se me quitará si le hallo.
