To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The translator of this grand history from the original, written by its first author Cid Hamete Benengeli, says, that coming to the chapter of the adventure of the cave of Montesinos, he found in the margin these words of Hamete's own handwriting : " I cannot persuade myself, or believe, that all that is mentioned in the forgoing chapter, happened to the valorous Don Quixote exactly as it is there written; the reason is, because all the adventiu-es hitherto related might have happened and are pr...obable ; but in this of the cave I find no possibility of its being true, as it exceeds all reasonable bounds. But for me to think that Don Quixote, being a gentleman of the greatest veracity, and a knight of the most worth of any of his time, would tell a lie, is as little possible ; for he would not utter a falsehood, though he were to be shot to death with arrows. On the other hand, I consider, that he told it with all the aforesaid circumstances, and that he could not, in so short a space, have framed so vast a machine of extravagances ; and if this adven- ture seems to be apocryphal, I am not in fault ; and so, without affirmii^ it for true or false, I write it.
