"So I will," said Sancho Panza, and having cut some, he asked his master's blessing, and not without many tears on both sides, took his leave of him, and mounting Rocinante, of whom Don Quixote charged him earnestly to have as much care as of his own person, he set out for the plain, strewing at intervals the branches of broom as his master had recommended him; and so he went his way, though Don Quixote still entreated him to see him do were it only a couple of mad acts.
Y, cortando algunos, pidió la bendición a su señor, y, no sin muchas lágrimas de entrambos, se despidió dél. Y, subiendo sobre Rocinante, a quien don Quijote encomendó mucho, y que mirase por él como por su propria persona, se puso en camino del llano, esparciendo de trecho a trecho los ramos de la retama, como su amo se lo había aconsejado.
