And now the Tovas youths, their naked skins well washed by the shower, and glistening like bronze fresh from the furnace some of them, however, bleeding from the scratches they have received spring upon their feet, re-adjust the jergas on the backs of their horses, and once more remount.
A slight grooming given to the animals, and it but remains to make their own beds. This done, by simply spreading their jergas and caronillas along the flinty stalagmites, each having his own recado for a pillow.
And well know they the danger of being caught in that exposed spot; so well that the scene now exhibited in their ranks is one of fright and confusion. Terrified exclamations are sent up on all sides, but only one voice of warning, this from him who had first descried the cloud. "From your horses!" he calls out, "take shelter behind them, and cover your faces with your jergas!
"And what's more, take them back to the other side, where we came up. There we can better conceal them among the bushes. Besides, if it should come to our being under the necessity of a speedy retreat, we'll be nearer to the back-track, and have a fairer chance of getting off. Senoritos! get your jergas, and wrap them round your horses' heads."
