Chispa. Because I have heard it said that Saturday is an unpleasant day for those who have but one shirt. Moreover, I have seen thee at the tavern, and if thou canst run as fast as thou canst drink, I should like to hunt hares with thee. What instrument is that?
First M. An Aragonese bag-pipe.
Chispa. Pray, art thou related to the bag-piper of Bujalance, who asked a maravedi for playing and ten for leaving off?
First M. No, your honor.
Chispa. I am glad of it. What other instruments have we?
Second and Third M. We play the bandurria.
Chispa. A pleasing instrument. And thou?
Fourth M. The fife.
Chispa. I like it; it has a cheerful, soul-stirring sound, that soars up to my lady’s window like the song of a swallow. And you others?
Other Musicians. We are the singers, please your honor.
