Ah, father, I was just going to see you; your young buck----
gpt
I've something very important----
human
I can't allow the fences to be broken; if he comes back, I shall fire on him.
gpt
Who knows whether to-morrow you will be alive,
human
What? You think that youngster is going to kill me?
gpt
Seþor alfÕrez, the lives of all of us are in danger!
human
What?
gpt
Now, go ahead,
human
Did you see how I ran? When I thus forget myself, there is some grave reason.
gpt
And this time it is----
human
Do you--know--of nothing--new?
gpt
Are you speaking of Elias?
human
No, no! I'm speaking of a great peril!
gpt
Well, finish then!
human
I have discovered a conspiracy!
gpt
A terrible conspiracy, well organized, that is to break out to-night!
human
Whom shall I arrest?
gpt
Be calm! There is plenty of time, thanks to the haste with which I came. At eight o'clock----

They shall be shot, all of them!
gpt
Listen! It is a secret of the confessional, discovered to me by a woman. At eight o'clock they are to surprise the barracks, sack the convent, and assassinate all the Spaniards.
human
Be ready for them; ambush your soldiers; send me four guards for the convent! You will earn your promotion to-night! I only ask you to make it known that it was I who warned you.
gpt
It shall be known, father; it shall be known, and, perhaps, it will bring down a mitre!
