Courage, Pereo! And thou sayest that Amita complains that thou comest between her and Raymond.

So! What matter?
Let it cheer thy heart to know that I have summoned the Peraltas, the Pachecos, the Estudillos, all thy old friends, to dine here to-day.

Thou wilt hear the old names, even if the faces are young to thee.

Courage! Do thy duty, old friend; let them see that the hospitality of La Mision Perdida does not grow old, if its mayordomo does.

Faquita will bring thee the wine.
