As for fixed abode, he said he had no other than that which chance offered wherever night might overtake him; and his words ended in an outburst of weeping so bitter that we who listened to him must have been very stones had we not joined him in it, comparing what we saw of him the first time with what we saw now; for, as I said, he was a graceful and gracious youth, and in his courteous and polished language showed himself to be of good birth and courtly breeding, and rustics as we were that listened to him, even to our rusticity his gentle bearing sufficed to make it plain.
En cuanto lo que tocaba a la estancia de su habitación, dijo que no tenía otra que aquella que le ofrecía la ocasión donde le tomaba la noche; y acabó su plática con un tan tierno llanto, que bien fuéramos de piedra los que escuchado le habíamos, si en él no le acompañáramos, considerándole cómo le habíamos visto la vez primera, y cuál le veíamos entonces. Porque, como tengo dicho, era un muy gentil y agraciado mancebo, y en sus corteses y concertadas razones mostraba ser bien nacido y muy cortesana persona; que, puesto que éramos rústicos los que le escuchábamos, su gentileza era tanta, que bastaba a darse a conocer a la mesma rusticidad.
