Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Adventures of Gil Blas De Santillana, Vol. 2 of 2 I went accordingly to Xelva, to make restitution of the three thousand ducats, which we had stolen from Samuel Simon: and will freely own, I was tempted on the road to convert the money to my own use, in order to begin my stewardship under happy auspices. This I might have done with impunity; for, had I travelled five or six days, and then returned, as if I had acquitted myself of my commission, Don Alphonso and his father would never have suspected my fidelity. I did not yield, however, to the temptation, which I surmounted like a lad of honour: a victory not a little commendable in a young fellow, who had associated with great cheats. There are a great many, who, though acquainted with honest people only, are not so scrupulous; those, especially, who are entrusted with sums which they may keep, without endangering their reputation. Having made restitution to the merchant, who had expected nothing of the kind, I returned to the castle of Leyva, which the Count de Polan had left, having set out again for Toledo, with Julia and Don Fernando.
