I really liked them, in their place of course. It still lacked an hour of noon when we came to a running brook, upon whose bank grew a tree casting such an inviting shade that we could not resist its fascinations but dismounted, tied our mules, and began to wish and watch for the appearance of Eduardo.

"I warmly thank you for what you say, Don Eduardo," I exclaimed; "but I cannot do what is proposed. If I am not guilty it will be more easy to die; but I trust that, as an Englishman, the government will not venture to put me to death unless my guilt is clearly proved."

To prevent their landing men, Captain Don Antonio Eduardo, and the special engineer, Don Manuel Madera, reconnoitred the shore about Puerto Caballas, to see if artillery could be brought there.
Jamás le ví tan fosco ... la carta traería sin duda alguna pimienta y ... pero esto no quita que yo trate de dorar la píldora ... no sea también que se enfade y que yo vaya a pagar lo que no debo. DON EDUARDO. ¡Lo que tarda este Bruno! BRUNO. Nadie puede responder de un primer pronto, y.... BRUNO. Perdone usted, señor don Eduardo, si no he vuelto tan luego como ... me entretuve aquí en....
DON EDUARDO. Si usted hubiera permitido alguna vez que la informara de mi posición, de mi familia, como en varias ocasiones lo he intentado en balde, comprendería usted ahora si tengo o no motivo para no temer el éxito de mi negociación; pero nunca me ha dejado usted hablar en esta materia, no sé por qué, y así....
