DOÑA MATILDE. No lo dudo, Eduardo; pero ... pero ello de todos modos es muy desagradable ... ¡y mi pobre papá que tenía tanta vanidad con mis manos!... ¿Qué buscas? DON EDUARDO. Di, Matilde, ¿has visto por ahí algún cepillo? DOÑA MATILDE. ¿Para qué? DON EDUARDO. Quisiera cepillarme un poco, antes de salir porque el polvillo del carbón.... DOÑA MATILDE. ¿Que vas a salir?
On the other hand, I see that Amadis of Gaul, without losing his senses and without doing anything mad, acquired as a lover as much fame as the most famous; for, according to his history, on finding himself rejected by his lady Oriana, who had ordered him not to appear in her presence until it should be her pleasure, all he did was to retire to the Pena Pobre in company with a hermit, and there he took his fill of weeping until Heaven sent him relief in the midst of his great grief and need.

They were in too great distress about the death of their chief, and the chastisement they had received. They were in fear that the Tejanos would pursue them to their town; and were making preparations to flee from it when Pedrillo and myself came away. Pobre Pedrillito!" Uraga no longer stays listening to the mock humanity of his whining messenger. No more does he think of the drowned Pedrillo.
Sancho fetched him his clothes; and while he was dressing, the curate gave Don Fernando and the others present an account of Don Quixote's madness and of the stratagem they had made use of to withdraw him from that Pena Pobre where he fancied himself stationed because of his lady's scorn.
The Prophet is stripped and scourged at the pillar until he drops from exhaustion. He is dragged anew before Pilate and examined, but his only word is, "Thou hast said." The scene lasts nearly an hour. The theatre was full of sobbing women and children. At every fresh brutality I could hear the weeping spectators say, "Pobre Jesus!" "How wicked they are!"
Lo que tendré serán trabajos ... y humillaciones ... y jabonaduras ... ¡ah Eduardo! mucho te quiero, muchísimo, pero si hubiera sabido.... BRUNO. ¡Señorita! DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Bruno! BRUNO. ¡Pobrecita mía! Metida en esta pocilga. DOÑA MATILDE. ¿Y papá? ¿Cómo está papá? Pobre papá, cómo le he ofendido. BRUNO. Está bueno ... no tenga usted cuidado ... y él es quien me ha dicho donde vivían ustedes.

The sisters clung alternately to their mother and Don Cosme, weeping and crying aloud, "Pobre Narcisso! nuestro hermanito le asesinaran!" In the midst of this distressing scene the door of the drawing-room was thrown suddenly open, and a servant rushed in, shouting in an agitated voice, "El norte! el norte!" "The Norther."
The arrival of Paco, who established himself behind the esquilador, in a gap of the circle, was insufficient to distract their attention from the important and all-absorbing interest of the dog-shearing. "Pobre Granuka!" cried one of the lookers-on, patting the dog's head, which lay back over the esquilador's knee; "how quiet he is! what a sensible animal!
