Ahora bien, dixo il Cura traedme, senor huésped, aquesos libros, que los quieto ver. Que me place, respondió el, y entrando, en su aposento, sacô dėl una maletilla vieja cerrada con una cadenilla, y abriéndola, halló en ella tres libros grandes y unos papeles de muy buena letra escritos de mano.-Don Quixote, Parte. I. Capitulo 32.

It is mighty well, said the priest; pray, landlord, bring me those books, for I have a mind to see them. With all my heart, answered the host; and going to his chamber, he brought out a little old cloke-bag, with a padlock and chain to it, and opening it, he took out three large volumes, and some manuscript papers written in a fine character.-Jarvis'sTranslation.
