(ll. 10–11; Correa 1999, 300)

(I have taken a son of yours prisoner, I will grant him his life

if you tell the truth about what I will ask you.)

He then threatens to kill Abenámar as well if he lies, “Moro, si no me la dizes, a ti también mataría” (l. 12). In the 1595 version this is omitted in favour of a different set of lines where Abenámar refers to his mother warning him as a child that lying is a serious offence:

siendo yo niño y muchacho mi madre me lo dezía:

que mentira no dixesse, que era grande villanía.
