A town in Ciudad Real province, Spain. Tr. The italicized words are in English in the original. Tr. A Spanish hero, whose chief exploit was the capture of Gibraltar from the Moors in 1308. Tr. Tr. In the original the message reads: "Español escondido casa Padre Florentino cojera remitirá vivo muerto."
But Don Tiburcio would not be convinced cojera was his own lameness, his personal description, and it was an intrigue of Victorina's to get him back alive or dead, as Isagani had written from Manila. So the poor Ulysses had left the priest's house to conceal himself in the hut of a woodcutter.
"T-that V-victorina!" Don Tiburcio had stammered. "S-she's c-capable of having me s-shot!" Padre Florentino was unable to reassure him. Vainly he pointed out to him that the word cojera should have read cogerá, and that the hidden Spaniard could not be Don Tiburcio, but the jeweler Simoun, who two days before had arrived, wounded and a fugitive, begging for shelter.
