How this is to be done, and what ye all have to do, I will leave in the hands of the Bishop Don Hieronymo, and Alvar Fanez, and Pero Bermudez. And when he had said this he placed himself at the feet of the Bishop, and there before all the people made a general confession of all his sins, and all the faults which he had committed against our Lord Jesus Christ.
Do you now return to Molina, and bring on my daughters, for I would fain see them; and I will talk with them that they may tell me the whole truth of this thing, that I may know the whole when I go to the court of the King to demand vengeance. XXIII. Pero Bermudez returned the next day to Molina, where Abengalvon had done great honour to the dames, and to Alvar Fanez, and all that were with him.
It is no uncommon thing to hear two little ragged urchins, whose heads would not reach to one's elbow, disputing vigorously in the street with a Pero no, Señor, Pero si, Señor, as they bandy their arguments.
They at length gave way and retreated through the breach. Pero Ruyz de Alarcon still maintained his ground in one of the principal streets: the few cavaliers that stood by him urged him to fly: "No," said he; "I came here to fight, and not to fly."
The name formerly given to the New Zealand dog was 'pero', which in some measure substantiates the supposition of Juan Fernandez having visited the country 'perro', in the Spanish language, being the name of a dog. We will now turn to the northern parts of America. The races of wild dogs are there considerably limited, both in number and the districts which they occupy.
DON EDUARDO. No, no ... pero ve de puntillas, y mira si por la rendija puedes atisbar quién es. DOÑA MATILDE. Voy ... es un viejecito barrigoncito, con calzones de pana y medias rayadas. DON EDUARDO. ¡Él es! DOÑA MATILDE. ¿Quién dices? DON EDUARDO. El diablo. DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Jesús mil veces! DON EDUARDO. O el casero, que es lo mismo ... ¿dónde me esconderé? DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Esconderte!
So thought Christophe: and life was on the verge of giving him the lie in a terrible fashion. The miracle is everywhere, like fire in stone: friction brings it forth. We have little notion of the demons who lie slumbering within ourselves.... ... Pero non mi destar, deh! parla basso!...
But this belief came from an old fable, for the porcupine cannot throw its quills, but he can push them in, in the same way that Pero pushed her's into the terrier, and then leave them to work their mischief. Had Jock been a wiser dog, he would have known better than to have had anything to do with the porcupine.
He called him Mudo, which is to say, Dumb-ee, because he snaffled and stuttered when he began to speak; and Pero Bermudez was wroth that he should be so called before all that assembly. And he said, I tell you what, Cid, you always call me Dumb-ee in Court, and you know I cannot help my words; but when anything is to be done, it shall not fail for me.
So he told them the name of the good man with whom he had left the dames, and the place where he dwelt, and also how he had spoken with Diego Tellez at Santesteban, and then they parted. XX. Alvar Fanez and Pero Bermudez held on their way, and came to the King, whom they found in Valladolid.
