‘Andrew Ximenes, being duly sworn,

Deposeth thus: that he was cutting wood,

When the two gentlemen came out to fight;

And stood to watch them; that, after some passes,

Don Diego fell; and the officers of justice

Then coming up, the other leap’d on horse,

And fled: but being brought to ground by a shot

That kill’d his horse, then ran, until he reach’d

Gil Perez’s house,’—here enter I,—‘who first

Courteously ask’d the Sheriff to desist
