Guapo soon overhauled his one, but, before he could lay his hands upon it, it had already half buried itself in the dry ground. Guapo, however, seized the tail and held on; and, although not able to drag it out, he was resolved it should get no deeper. The one pursued by Don Pablo had got close to the edge of the precipice, before either he or Leon could come up with it.
