PARTE III
TROTERAS y DANZADERAS
The Indian dances to prepare himself for killing his enemy; but our dance is the very act of killing Time, a more inveterate and formidable foe than any the Indian has to contend with; for, however completely and ingeniously killed, he is sure to rise again, «with twenty mortal murders on his crown», leading his army of blue devils, with ennui in the van and vapours in the rear.
