While this conversation, amusing to all except Don Quixote, was proceeding, they ascended the staircase and ushered Don Quixote into a chamber hung with rich cloth of gold and brocade; six damsels relieved him of his armour and waited on him like pages, all of them prepared and instructed by the duke and duchess as to what they were to do, and how they were to treat Don Quixote, so that he might see and believe they were treating him like a knight-errant.
Con estos razonamientos, gustosos a todos sino a don Quijote, llegaron a lo alto y entraron a don Quijote en una sala adornada de telas riquísimas de oro y de brocado; seis doncellas le desarmaron y sirvieron de pajes, todas industriadas y advertidas del duque y de la duquesa de lo que habían de hacer, y de cómo habían de tratar a don Quijote, para que imaginase y viese que le trataban como caballero andante.
