I will give you twenty crowns, Gerald replied;

The party who attacked us, the muleteer said,
human
Where could I see them?
gpt
I think that they will be now in Jeres, if that would suit you, señor; but if not I could doubtless find a party of men in this town equally ready for your business.
human
Jeres will do very well for me, Gerald said;
gpt
I shall be travelling that way and will put up at the Fonda where we stopped as we came through. When are you starting?
human
It depends whether I make my bargain with a man at your hotel, the muleteer replied;
gpt
No, Gerald said.
human
I do not wish to undertake any adventures of that sort until I have a band properly organized, and have arranged hiding-places and methods of getting rid of the booty. I will go back with you to the inn, and if you strike your bargain you can tell me as you pass out of the gate what evening you will meet me at Jeres.
gpt
I will meet your worship on the fifth night from this at Jeres.
human
Very well; here are five crowns as an earnest on our bargain. If you carry it out well I shall very likely forget to deduct them from the twenty I promised you. Do not be surprised if you find me somewhat changed in appearance when you meet me there.
