_Gov._ I pray G.o.d to prosper you, Don Forcico; are you well?
_Don For._ I am here, as is proper, [and I pray G.o.d to protect]
those who carry the messages, those who transact the business, the regular alcaldes of the Holy Brotherhood, the registrars, notaries and archivists, [by day] and night, in the Royal Court of Governor Tastuanes.
_Gov._ Well, Don Forcico, you are to tell me the truth about the stories which Gueguence tells, saying that he is a rich man, and has property, and handsome and beautiful things; in the first place, chests of gold, chests of silver, doubloons of gold, coins of silver; so tell me clearly, Don Forcico.
_Don For._ O! G.o.d bless me, Governor Tastuanes, the day and the night are too short to tell you all the riches of my father. In the first place, chests of gold, chests of silver, cloth of Spain, cloth from smugglers, stirrup straps of lace of gold and silver, as may satisfy the clever Governor Tastuanes.
_Gov._ No, not satisfied yet, Don Forcico; for next, your little brother, Don Ambrosio, will give a truthful account to the Royal Court about these riches and abundant treasures.
_Don For._ Governor Tastuanes, if friend Captain Chief Alguacil will suspend in the quarters of the leading men the music, dances, songs and ballets, my little brother, Don Ambrosio, will give a truthful account.

_Gov._ My son, Captain Chief Alguacil, suspend in the quarters of the leading men the music, dances, songs and ballets, and his little brother, Don Ambrosio, will give a truthful account of the riches and treasures.
_Alg._ At your service, Governor Tastuanes. I pray G.o.d to protect the leading men, [and they suspend] the music, dances, songs and ballets, and Don Ambrosio will give a truthful account.
(The Alguacil takes Don Ambrosio aside to talk to the Governor.)
_Don Am._ I pray G.o.d to protect you, Governor Tastuanes.
_Gov._ I pray G.o.d to prosper you, Don Ambrosio; are you well?
_Don Am._ I am here, as is proper, [and I pray G.o.d to protect] those who carry the messages, those who transact the business, the regular alcaldes of the Holy Brotherhood, the registrars, notaries and archivists, [by day] and by night, in the Royal Court of Governor Tastuanes.
_Gov._ Well, Don Ambrosio, you are to tell me the truth about the stories which Gueguence relates, saying that he is a rich man. In the first place, [that he has] chests of gold, chests of silver, cloth of Spain, cloth from smugglers, vests, skirts of feathers, silk stockings, golden shoes, a beaver hat, stirrup straps of lace of gold and silver, quant.i.ties of pretty things, as that good-for-nothing Gueguence relates; so tell me clearly, Don Ambrosio.

_D. Ambrosio._
Valgame Dios, Sor. Gob^{or} Tastuanes, verguenza me da contar las cosas de ese Gueguence embustero, pues solo esta esperando que cierre la noche para salir de casa en casa a hurtar lo que hay en las cocinas para pasar el, y su hijo Don Forcico. Dice que tiene cajoneria de oro, y es una petaca vieja totolatera, que tiene catre de seda y es un petate viejo revolcado, dice que tiene medias de seda y son unas botias viejas sin forro, que tiene zapatos de oro, y son unas chancletas viejas sin suelas, que tiene un fusil de oro, y es solo el palo, porque el canon se lo quitaron.
_Gueguence._
Ve, que afrenta de muchacho, hablador, boca floja! revientale, hijo, la cabeza, que como no es hijo mio me desacredita.
_D. Forcico._
Quitate de aqui, mala casta! No se espante Sor. Gob^{or} Tastuanes en oir a este hablador, que cuando yo anduve con mi padre por la carrera de Mexico y cuando venimos ya estaba mi madre en cinta de otro, y por eso salio tan mala casta, Sor. Gob^{or} Tastuanes.
_Gueguence._
