English

This done, in profound silence they entered the room where he was asleep, taking his his rest after the past frays, and advancing to where he was sleeping tranquilly, not dreaming of anything of the kind happening, they seized him firmly and bound him fast hand and foot, so that, when he awoke startled, he was unable to move, and could only marvel and wonder at the strange figures he saw before him; upon which he at once gave way to the idea which his crazed fancy invariably conjured up before him, and took it into his head that all these shapes were phantoms of the enchanted castle, and that he himself was unquestionably enchanted as he could neither move nor help himself; precisely what the curate, the concoctor of the scheme, expected would happen.

Spanish

Hecho esto, con grandísimo silencio se entraron adonde él estaba durmiendo y descansando de las pasadas refriegas. Llegáronse a él, que libre y seguro de tal acontecimiento dormía, y, asiéndole fuertemente, le ataron muy bien las manos y los pies, de modo, que cuando él despertó con sobresalto, no pudo menearse, ni hacer otra cosa más que admirarse y suspenderse de ver delante de sí tan extraños visajes; y luego dio en la cuenta de lo que su continua y desvariada imaginación le representaba, y se creyó que todas aquellas figuras eran fantasmas de aquel encantado castillo, y que, sin duda alguna, ya estaba encantado, pues no se podía menear ni defender: todo a punto como había pensado que sucedería el Cura, trazador desta máquina.
