"That is enough," said Dorothea, "for with friends we must not look too closely into trifles; and whether it be on the shoulder or on the backbone matters little; it is enough if there is a mole, be it where it may, for it is all the same flesh; no doubt my good father hit the truth in every particular, and I have made a lucky hit in commending myself to Don Quixote; for he is the one my father spoke of, as the features of his countenance correspond with those assigned to this knight by that wide fame he has acquired not only in Spain but in all La Mancha; for I had scarcely landed at Osuna when I heard such accounts of his achievements, that at once my heart told me he was the very one I had come in search of."
-Eso basta -dijo Dorotea-, porque con los amigos no se ha de mirar en pocas cosas, y que esté en el hombro o que esté en el espinazo, importa poco; basta que haya lunar, y esté donde estuviere, pues todo es una mesma carne; y, sin duda, acertó mi buen padre en todo, y yo he acertado en encomendarme al señor don Quijote, que él es por quien mi padre dijo, pues las señales del rostro vienen con las de la buena fama que este caballero tiene no sólo en España, pero en toda la Mancha, pues apenas me hube desembarcado en Osuna, cuando oí decir tantas hazañas suyas, que luego me dio el alma que era el mesmo que venía a buscar.
