Sancho was amazed afresh at the extent of his master's knowledge, as much as if he had never known him, for it seemed to him that there was no story or event in the world that he had not at his fingers' ends and fixed in his memory, and he said to him, "In truth, master mine, if this that has happened to us to-day is to be called an adventure, it has been one of the sweetest and pleasantest that have befallen us in the whole course of our travels; we have come out of it unbelaboured and undismayed, neither have we drawn sword nor have we smitten the earth with our bodies, nor have we been left famishing; blessed be God that he has let me see such a thing with my own eyes!"
Quedó Sancho de nuevo como si jamás hubiera conocido a su señor, admirado de lo que sabía, pareciéndole que no debía de haber historia en el mundo ni suceso que no lo tuviese cifrado en la uña y clavado en la memoria, y díjole: -En verdad, señor nuestramo, que si esto que nos ha sucedido hoy se puede llamar aventura, ella ha sido de las más suaves y dulces que en todo el discurso de nuestra peregrinación nos ha sucedido: della habemos salido sin palos y sobresalto alguno, ni hemos echado mano a las espadas, ni hemos batido la tierra con los cuerpos, ni quedamos hambrientos. Bendito sea Dios, que tal me ha dejado ver con mis propios ojos.
