Nor did our expectation deceive us, for two hours had not passed when, coming out of the brushwood into the open ground, we perceived some fifty mounted men swiftly approaching us at a hand-gallop. As soon as we saw them we stood still, waiting for them; but as they came close and, instead of the Moors they were in quest of, saw a set of poor Christians, they were taken aback, and one of them asked if it could be we who were the cause of the shepherd having raised the call to arms.
Y no nos engañó nuestro pensamiento, porque, aún no habrían pasado dos horas cuando, habiendo ya salido de aquellas malezas a un llano, descubrimos hasta cincuenta caballeros, que con gran ligereza, corriendo a media rienda, a nosotros se venían, y así como los vimos, nos estuvimos quedos aguardándolos; pero, como ellos llegaron y vieron, en lugar de los moros que buscaban, tanto pobre cristiano, quedaron confusos, y uno dellos nos preguntó si éramos nosotros acaso la ocasión por que un pastor había apellidado al arma.
