No quiere mas hoy. Mañana! Ocho! Sabe, Cochero? Ocho! Now don't chewbe What's late in their lingo, anyhow? 'Tisn't tardy, I know; that's afternoon. Tardeeo? Thank you. Now well, just sit down, first, lieutenant. You see we know how to address officers by their titles, if the Red Cross don't. I'd teach 'em to Mister me if I was an officer. Now, what I want to see you about first is this.
DOÑA MATILDE. Se gloriarían entonces de llamarse tales, más que si me vieran habitando en palacios de cristal. DON EDUARDO. O, lo que es lo mismo, en casa de un vidriero. DOÑA MATILDE. Ya, si no crees tampoco en aquellas amistades que se engendran en la edad preciosa.... DON EDUARDO. En que no se sabe todavía lo que se quiere. DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Qué terrible estás, Eduardo!

Noticiero! Vendors of lottery-tickets wander up and down, audaciously offering the first prize: 'Quien quiere el premio gardo? Beggars follow you with piteous tales of fasts improbably extended. But most striking is the gente flamenca, the bull-fighter, with his numerous hangers-on.
"Señor," she began in Spanish, "deseo comprar aquel caballo negro. Puedo pagar cualquire cantidad razonable por el. Se perdio y nosotros lo cuidamos, y he aprendido a quererlo mucho. Si usted quiere venderlo me haria un gran favor. Siento mucho que me lo hayan quitado." The Mexican looked relieved. He slowly removed his hat with true Castilian courtesy.
DOÑA MATILDE. Porque ni entonces quise, ni ahora quiero oír hablar de intereses ni parentescos. Eso queda bueno cuando se trata de esos monstruosos enlaces que se ven por ahí, en donde todo se ajusta como libra de peras, y en donde se quiere averiguar antes si habrá luego que comer, o si habrá con que educar los hijos que vendrán, o que quizá no vendrán. ¿Y yo había de pensar en eso?
