"Like what does he look? A beautiful caballero, I suppose, with eyes that melt and a mouth that trembles like a woman in the palsy." "Ay, no, my Chonita; thou art wrong. He is not beautiful at all.
Now you understand why I am here and why I wished to see you." "Valgame Dios! This is amazing. I become more bewildered momentarily." "There is nothing extraordinary about it, that I can see."

"What news, Don Miguel?" Pablo ventured presently. "We will win, Pablo." "Valgame dios! I will wager my fortune on Panchito. Here it is, Don Miguel one hundred and eighty dollars. I know not the ways of these Gringo races, but if the stakeholder be an honest man and known personally to you, I will be your debtor forever if you will graciously consent to attend to this detail for me."
