The day of his departure came at length, as welcome to Don Quixote as it was sad and sorrowful to Sancho Panza, who was very well satisfied with the abundance of Don Diego's house, and objected to return to the starvation of the woods and wilds and the short-commons of his ill-stocked alforjas; these, however, he filled and packed with what he considered needful.
Llegóse, en fin, el día de su partida, tan alegre para don Quijote como triste y aciago para Sancho Panza, que se hallaba muy bien con la abundancia de la casa de don Diego, y rehusaba de volver a la hambre que se usa en las florestas, despoblados, y a la estrecheza de sus mal proveídas alforjas.
