"Answer, if you would not die; you are in my power."
"A brave man only belongs to himself. He has always the resource of letting himself be killed."
"Perhaps so."
"Try to take me."
"Surrender, and no harm will be done you."
"A bombero never surrenders."
"Why did you introduce yourself among us."
"¡Canario! I came to witness your Indian jugglery, and learn the object of this nocturnal meeting."
"You are frank, at any rate, and I will take that into consideration. Come! Resistance would be useless, so surrender."
