This Gines, then, afraid of being caught by the officers of justice, who were looking for him to punish him for his numberless rascalities and offences (which were so many and so great that he himself wrote a big book giving an account of them), resolved to shift his quarters into the kingdom of Aragon, and cover up his left eye, and take up the trade of a puppet-showman; for this, as well as juggling, he knew how to practise to perfection.
Este Ginés, pues, temeroso de no ser hallado de la justicia, que le buscaba para castigarle de sus infinitas bellaquerías y delitos, que fueron tantos y tales, que él mismo compuso un gran volumen contándolos, determinó pasarse al reino de Aragón y cubrirse el ojo izquierdo, acomodándose al oficio de titerero; que esto y el jugar de manos lo sabía hacer por estremo.
