‘All I can say,’ said Sancho, ‘is that you must have some little devil in that body of yours. For God’s sake, woman — stringing all that nonsense together, one piece of it after another, without any rhyme or reason! What can old Cascajo, brooches, proverbs and people giving themselves airs and graces have to do with what I’m talking about? Look you here, you dimwit, you ignoramus, and I’ve got every right to call you that, because you refuse to understand me and you’re turning your back on good fortune - if I was telling my daughter to throw herself off some tower or take to the streets like Doña Urraca,1 you’d be right not to go along with me, but when I’m saying that in a brace of shakes and in the twinkling of an eye I’ll stick a doña and a ladyship on top of her and fetch her out of the stubble-fields and put her under an awning on a platform with more plush pillows on it than all the pilaus that all the Moors of Morocco ever had for dinner, why on earth won’t you agree and fall in with my wishes?’
