"Now, we must separate," the capataz said, as he rose.
"What, already?"
"I have to accompany my master tonight on an excursion outside the city."
"Some plot, I presume?"
"I am afraid so; but what would you have; I am forced to obey."
"In that case, turn me out of doors."
"That is what I am going to do; by-the-bye, have you seen Don Valentine since you arrived?"
"Not yet. This long delay makes me anxious, and if it were not so late, or if I knew my road, I would go and ask hospitality of Don Antonio Rallier, his fellow countryman, so as to obtain news of him."
"That is of no consequence. Do you know Don Antonio's address?"
"Yes, he lives in the Secunda Monterilla."
