 60   I,     XXVII|      however, agreed to do as the curate wished, and, altering their

 62   I,     XXVII|          up the garments, and the curate adjusted his beard, and
 63   I,     XXVII|       suddenly came upon him. The curate, who was aware of his misfortune

 69   I,    XXVIII|           heard distinctly by the curate and those with him, and
 70   I,    XXVIII|         had not been noticed, the curate, who was in front, made
 71   I,    XXVIII|         that Cardenio said to the curate in a whisper:~ ~"As this
 72   I,    XXVIII|     hastened towards her, and the curate addressing her first said:~ ~"

 79   I,      XXIX|           In that case," said the curate, "there is nothing more

 82   I,      XXIX|    Princess Micomicona," said the curate; "for as her kingdom is
 83   I,      XXIX|              So it may," said the curate; "and as for your master'
 84   I,      XXIX|        was as much pleased as the curate was amazed at his simplicity

 96   I,      XXIX|        astonished, and begged the curate to teach him that charm
 97   I,      XXIX|           And so it is," said the curate, and he promised to teach
 98   I,      XXIX|          that for the present the curate should mount, and that the

101   I,      XXIX|        that briefly," replied the curate; "you must know then, Senor
102   I,      XXIX|        body." Sancho had told the curate and the barber of the adventure
103   I,      XXIX|           achieved, and hence the curate in alluding to it made the

109   I,       XXX|           only natural," said the curate. "Will your majesty please
110   I,       XXX|   conversing in this fashion, the curate observed to Dorothea that
111   I,       XXX|               So I saw," said the curate, "and for that reason I
112   I,       XXX|         thing about it," said the curate, "is that, apart from the
113   I,      XXXI|          village where there is a curate; if not, here is our licentiate

115   I,     XXXII|        the shepherd Cardenio. The curate made them get ready such
116   I,     XXXII|      little amusement. But on the curate observing that it was the

120   I,     XXXII|           de Paredes."~ ~When the curate read the two first titles
121   I,     XXXII|         Only these two," said the curate, "Don Cirongilio, and Felixmarte."~ ~"
122   I,     XXXII|                Brother," said the curate, "those two books are made
123   I,     XXXII|       consider, brother, said the curate once more, "there never
124   I,     XXXII|       told you, friend," said the curate, "that this is done to divert
125   I,     XXXII|     valise and the books, but the curate said to him, "Wait; I want
126   I,     XXXII|       Ill-advised Curiosity." The curate read three or four lines
127   I,     XXXII|          right, friend," said the curate; "but for all that, if the
128   I,     XXXII|         same opinion of it as the curate, he begged him to read it
129   I,     XXXII|          would read it," said the curate, "if the time would not

131   I,     XXXII|           receive it himself, the curate said, "Well then, attend
132   I,      XXXV|         about, brother?" said the curate, pausing as he was about
133   I,      XXXV|          that if Cardenio and the curate had not dragged him off,
134   I,      XXXV|           damaged wine-skins. The curate was holding Don Quixote'
135   I,      XXXV|      Micomicona, knelt before the curate and said, "Exalted and beauteous
136   I,      XXXV|         barber, Cardenio, and the curate contrived with no small
137   I,      XXXV|     smiled from time to time. The curate smoothed matters by promising
138   I,      XXXV|     therefore being appeased, the curate was anxious to go on with
139   I,      XXXV|        like this novel," said the curate; "but I cannot persuade
140   I,     XXXVI|         they very near?" said the curate.~ ~"So near," answered the
141   I,     XXXVI|        stable. Observing this the curate, curious to know who these
142   I,     XXXVI|            who is she?" asked the curate.~ ~"That I cannot tell you
143   I,     XXXVI|           by his name?" asked the curate.~ ~"No, indeed," replied
144   I,     XXXVI|       That may well be," said the curate, and leaving them he returned
145   I,     XXXVI|     completely to the ground. The curate at once hastened to uncover
146   I,     XXXVI|           friends, as well as the curate and the barber, who had
147   I,     XXXVI|       expected a meeting. And the curate bade him remember that only
148   I,    XXXVII|        and hopeless business. The curate as a sensible man made sound
149   I,    XXXVII|          promise Cardenio and the curate had given her to pay for

151   I,    XXXVII|          capable of. But now, the curate said, that the lady Dorothea'

154   I,   XXXVIII|     chivalry was in question. The curate told him he was quite right
155   I,   XXXVIII| compliance, he would tell it. The curate and the others thanked him
156   I,      XLII|       Fernando, Cardenio, and the curate, however, greeted him in
157   I,      XLII|     Fernando and Cardenio and the curate aside, and told them how
158   I,      XLII|          find out that," said the curate; "though there is no reason
159   I,      XLII|       told you already," said the curate, "that I will manage it
160   I,      XLII|          the middle of supper the curate said:~ ~"I had a comrade
161   I,      XLII|           de Viedma," replied the curate, "and he was born in a village
162   I,      XLII|         in the world."~ ~Here the curate went on to relate briefly
163   I,      XLII|          so much of a hearer. The curate, however, only went so far
164   I,      XLII|          was listening to all the curate said, and watching every
165   I,      XLII|          soon as he perceived the curate had made an end of his story,

167   I,      XLII|           waiting to see what the curate would do, when the latter,
168   I,      XLIV|        companions, the Judge, the curate, the barber, and Don Quixote;
169   I,       XLV|          is quite true," said the curate, who saw the object of his

171   I,       XLV|          she-ass's," observed the curate.~ ~"It is all the same,"
172   I,       XLV|          were supporting him; the curate was shouting at the top
173   I,       XLV|       Senor Judge, and you, senor curate; let the one represent King
174   I,       XLV|   persuasion of the Judge and the curate, the servants of Don Luis
175   I,       XLV|       Fernando, Cardenio, and the curate as to what he ought to do
176   I,       XLV|         is to be arrested."~ ~The curate took the warrant and saw
177   I,      XLVI|       talking in this strain, the curate was endeavouring to persuade
178   I,      XLVI|           For all that," said the curate, "you must not take him
179   I,      XLVI|      taken away."~ ~In short, the curate used such arguments, and
180   I,      XLVI|         to Mambrino's helmet, the curate, under the rose and without
181   I,      XLVI|        and compensation which the curate gave the barber had not
182   I,      XLVI|           very last farthing. The curate settled all amicably, and
183   I,      XLVI|         zeal and eloquence of the curate, and to the unexampled generosity
184   I,      XLVI|      ready to pardon him, and the curate went for Sancho, who came
185   I,      XLVI|   restoring Queen Micomicona, the curate and the barber might carry
186   I,      XLVI|         as they proposed, and the curate be able to take his madness

188   I,      XLVI|       himself; precisely what the curate, the concoctor of the scheme,

194   I,     XLVII|        not want them himself. The curate thanked him, and opening
195   I,     XLVII|           and behind all came the curate and the barber on their
196   I,     XLVII|       oxen, and he said so to the curate, but the barber was of opinion
197   I,     XLVII|           Just at that moment the curate, looking back, saw coming
198   I,     XLVII|            Sancho, Rocinante, the curate and the barber, and above
199   I,     XLVII|      relating them;" but here the curate and the barber, seeing that
200   I,     XLVII|        Mancha says," observed the curate, "is the truth; for he goes
201   I,     XLVII|     lawyers." Then turning to the curate he exclaimed, "Ah, senor
202   I,     XLVII|          he exclaimed, "Ah, senor curate, senor curate! do you think
203   I,     XLVII|           Ah, senor curate, senor curate! do you think I don't know
204   I,     XLVII|         have said all this, senor curate, only to urge your paternity
205   I,     XLVII|          should disclose what the curate and he himself were trying
206   I,     XLVII|         the same apprehension the curate had asked the canon to ride

208   I,     XLVII|          To tell the truth, senor curate, I for my part consider
209   I,     XLVII|         worthless breed."~ ~ ~The curate listened to him attentively
210   I,    XLVIII|            senor canon," said the curate; "and for that reason those
211   I,    XLVIII|        senor canon," observed the curate here, "that has awakened
212   I,    XLVIII|   amusement."~ ~The canon and the curate had proceeded thus far with
213   I,    XLVIII|      joined them, and said to the curate, "This is the spot, senor
