Out of pure vexation he remained without eating, and out of pure politeness Sancho did not venture to touch a morsel of what was before him, but waited for his master to act as taster. Seeing, however, that, absorbed in thought, he was forgetting to carry the bread to his mouth, he said never a word, and trampling every sort of good breeding under foot, began to stow away in his paunch the bread and cheese that came to his hand.
No comía don Quijote, de puro pesaroso, ni Sancho no osaba tocar a los manjares que delante tenía, de puro comedido, y esperaba a que su señor hiciese la salva; pero, viendo que, llevado de sus imaginaciones, no se acordaba de llevar el pan a la boca, no abrió la suya, y, atropellando por todo género de crianza, comenzó a embaular en el estómago el pan y queso que se le ofrecía.
