OLD STORY OF HOW ONE IS THAT YOU WON A LAWSUIT CLERK TO Dible
| Peruvian This tradition was written by Don Ricardo Palma in 1864. Try a notary, to conquer the love of a woman, bet with the devil and won. Here, Don Ricardo Palma uses many colloquialisms, but they are easy to guess. comments or questions about the colloquialisms of this work. |
I
Back in the early years of last century was, in the portal of Clerks of the city three times crowned kings of Peru, a clerk, whose spectacles on her nose Cicero, goose or other bird of prey, ink-horn, blue cloth pants short leg, tiritaña doublet and English cloak of color, if you had color, and that he had come by rightful inheritance from from father to son for three generations.
The town's namesake was known for good thief to whom Christ gave Don a passport to enter the glory, it was named D. Dimas of the Frigate, clerk of the Royal Court and a man who, by dint of giving faith, had been without a hint of faith, because in the office spent on the little short that brought the world.
was said that he had more backroom that a still life, more rosary beads from Jerusalem that he carried over his neck, and more than eight fold in the fruit of their tricks, lies and fraudulent changes, than could fit on a galleon. Was it for him by a soldier who said versista as of:
| "A clerk and a cat fell into a pit, as the two had nails climbed the wall." |
Fame is that, the clerk, had seized the three enemies of the soul that was his as long as darning and patches which did not recognize his Divine Majesty, who he is and that it has created. And I have to myself that if the Supreme Being, he would have come in please, call her at trial, would have exclaimed with astonishment, "Dimas, what has made the soul I gave you?".
This is the clerk, by dint of mischief was the cream people of the trade, and if the wrong was not where disposal, nor the guardian angel would find handle to transport his spirit to heaven when I got the set in the aftermath. They
your mercy that as steward of the union, at a party paid for by the scribes, in the middle of the sermon happened to drop a cat from the cornice of the temple, which disrupted the preacher and swirled into the auditorium. But D. Dimas restored quiet to the point, shouting "No reason to mess, gentlemen. Warn that has fallen is a brother of the famous congregation, that has certainly committed a crime to come a little late to the party. Now follow your reverence with the sermon. "
All guilds are patron saint on earth who exercised the same trade or profession, but neither in the Roman martyrology there would have been holy clerk, as if it was or it was San Aproniano is still unresolved. The poor things are not in heaven intercede for them comrade. Bad Easter
God gives me, and be the first to come, or give me longevity of ill health elephant, if the portrait, and physical and moral, Frigate, will I have the patience to bother living member of the respectable fraternity of before me and certify. And I make this exception worthy of trust lay not so much for discharge of my sins, which are numerous, and my consciousness narrator, that are not important, but rather because these are people of great strength that neither road nor do I play or I will not charge you. Enough of drawings and requilorios, and walk on foot, and continue the party, if God pleases, and time and encourage me water, and this council Falls in grace, stories have to fit in abundance and without further intervention scribe. Walk the wheel and hit her.

do not know who said that women were the bane of mankind, in which, mine is the account if he did not say nonsense like the fist. Centuries ago the poor that we are throwing Eva curiosity in the face I spanked her a bite of the proverbial apple, as if it had not been in the hands of Adam, who was eventually brought a pauper too lightly, return the appeal as inadmissible, and why, in God and my soul, declare that the candy was tempting to those who feel a soul stirrings in his body. Bonita apology of his father Adam thanks! Nowadays the apology does not save him going to prison, though, to imprisonment is more than enough with their living and clubbed some drag in this vale of tears and animal skins. Men also accept our share of responsibility in a very good time temptation provides, and do not bear the whole matter to the beautiful sex.
| Up, legs, above, stringers! in this world are all traps. |
some would not think that this digression is beside the point. But go if you come! I served as nothing less than to inform the reader that gave the old Frigate, when men and women smell, not patchouli, but wax die well, stupid at worst it can give an old man. She fell to the crown of Visitation, gentle girl of twenty summers, with a palm and a graceful and able to tempt him to the very general of the parents belemnites, a polished waistband and those of look at me funny and do not touch me, like cherry red lips, teeth like almendruco, eyes like two stars and more rock and coarse matadors. When I say that was a bud girl through and through!
However, the clerk was a modest bumblebee pocket and gold so close to his chest as a minister to nap, and when they could give it would not even good night, it was proposed to tame the girl by force of entertainments , and sent her a diamond pendant earrings with pearls as chickpeas, now rich velvet costumes of Flanders at that time cost a pretty penny. But the more wasted tailed, more distant the time saw the girl had been done in a charity, and this brought him to retortero resistance. Visitation
love and company lived with an aunt, old as the sin of gluttony, who years later encorozó the Holy Inquisition for pimps and concealing, making walking the streets in pack-beast, with chillador Curriers front and back. The damn darning of wills did not believe, as Sancho, who was unhappily married niece better than good abarraganada, and mischievously indoctrinating their third party with the girl, was a day the longer leg to stand on the doodle and mischief because of a rogue cat. Since if the aunt was the hook, the niece, and complete woman under the regulations of birlibirloque became bait for fishing maravedíes more than two and more than three wealthy gentlemen of this land.
The clerk came every night to house visitation, and after notification with a salute, went on to expose the allegation sufficient proof of his love. She heard him cutting his nails, reminding some boquirrubio that compliments the flowers burst out of the parish church, saying to his coat, "Babazorro, snuggle you sweat, and you wipe the egg" or Canturri:
| "Do not waste your bullets in me, policeman, because I'm high-flying dove. If you wish to want you to give me before earrings and rings, lace and gloves. " |
And took care of the compliments and teasing of Frigate birds, such as stone berroqueña to the chirps of the glass it breaks. And six months passed, accepting the Alboroque Visitation and not recognize a party nor disclose to covering the warrant because he knew very sly fund the influence of her charms on the heart of the scribe.
But we will find little way of Santiago, where both sliding catch as the healthy.

One night he tried to lift the rooster tailed to Visitation, or, which is, to get angry, he ordered that he should put her feet on the wall, because I was tired of having before our eyes the picture of heresy, which she and not the other resembling D. Dimas. Sketched out this evil, and the black of his misfortune with good reason, the girl's house, and walking, walking, and lost in thought, he found a piece of the twelve, at the foot of the hill of the Branches. A playful breeze, those who walk pregnant with runny nose, cooled her head slightly and said:
-my faith is that I grind with the mop that gives the honest and stocking, when I know more of her caliber miracles which reads the "Flos Sanctorum. Come and take a devil either my doublet instead of the love of the capricious creature!
Satan, from the deepest caverns of hell had heard the words of the feather, rang the bell, and the claim was made the devil Lilith. In case my readers do not know this character, have known that the demonógrafos, who walk around and tables on the clavicles of Solomon, books they read in the glow of an emerald, say Lilit, Devil beautiful picture, very flattering and Peculiarly, the correvedile of His Infernal Majesty.
-Go, Lilit, the mountain of branches and extend a contract with a man who could find there, and that harbors so much contempt for his soul to the flame doublet. Grant soon as you ask and do not put out of haggling, you know I'm not stingy in the case of a dam.
I, poor and badly brought storyteller, I could not reach details about the meeting between Lilith and D. Dimas, because there was no court reporter on hand to take charge of copying without losing point or comma. It is a pity, by my faith! But suffice to know that Lilith, returning to hell, Satan handed a scroll, a formula more or less read:
"Be it known that I, Mr. Dimas of the Earwig, I give my doublet to the king of the abyss instead of love and possession of a woman. Item, I force myself to satisfy the debt of date in three years. " And here were the signatures of the high contracting parties and stamped by the devil.
When entering the clerk in his den, went to open the door no less than Visitation, Visitation prissy disdain and who, drunk with love she threw herself into the arms of Frigate. What is the bell, as the clapper. Lilit
had kindled in the heart of the poor girl Lais fire, and its shameless sense of Messalina lubricity. Fold this page, which in itself is dangerous that can be extended into details entice the neighbor plowing his eternal damnation, without being worth the Bull of Meco and the composition.

As there is no deadline is not met or debt is not paid, spent, day by day, three years as three eggplants, and came the day that had tailed to do honor to his signature. Carried away by a superior force and without realizing it, was found in a verb transported to the hill of the Branches, that even in the devil that was picky and wanted to be paid in the same place and time that the contract was extended.
At face Lilith, the clerk began to undress with a lot of phlegm, but the devil said: "No
take your worship that work, that damn weight to the load increase the fabric of the suit. I have a USARC forces to carry clothing and footwear.
"Well no nudity, no fall in how it is possible to pay my debt.
-Click USARC as he pleases, and that he still has a moment of freedom.
The clerk continued in operation until the doublet or jerkin drawn inside, and passing it Lilit said
-debt paid and come my paper. Lilit
laughed with all the enthusiasm of a devil is capable cheerful scoundrel.
"And what do USARC to do with this pledge?
- Takes! This piece is called doublet, and that's what I've sold and I'm bound. Charter sings. Review USARC, Mr. diabolín, contract, and you have conscientious give well paid. As a doublet that cost me an ounce, as a porthole in the Pacheco shop!
"I do not understand tracamundanas, M. D. Dimas. Come with me and keep your words in the chest when in front of my master. In this
expired minute, and Lilith began to shoulder tailed, sneaking to him rondón in hell. By the way shouted loudly that the clerk had haste in the proceedings of Lilith, who all served time and was void and against law, and threatened the sheriff devil that if people find justice in the other area you would enter into litigation, and at least I would award costs. Lilit merchant put ears to the voices of D. Dimas, and was already, by way of warning, plunging into a cauldron of boiling lead, when stirred up the Cocyto and reprimands Satan of the labyrinth and causes that motivated, agreed that she would adopt the thing in question. To adhere to the law and escape that smells arbitrariness and despotism, the devil! Fortunately for Tijereta
not been introduced at that time in hell the use of stamped paper, here on earth that has no end a process, and in short time the cause was blocked in the first and second instance. Without citing the Charter Pandects or judged, and with only the authority of the dictionary of the language, tried the rogue good law, and judges, who in life were probably writers and academics, ordered without delay to be given her freedom , and Lilit guide him by the intricacies of hell until he was safely in the door of his house. The sentence was fulfilled to the letter, in which Satan gave evidence that the laws in hell are not, as in the world, violated by the boss and good only for writing. But the evil destroyed hechizo, se encontró D. Dimas con que Visitación lo había abandonado corriendo a encerrarse en un beaterío, siguiendo la añeja máxima de dar a Dios el hueso después de haber regalado la carne al demonio.
Satanás, por no perderlo todo, se quedó con la almilla; y es fama que desde entonces los escribanos no usan almilla. Por eso cualquier constipadito vergonzante produce en ellos una pulmonía de capa de coro y gorra de cuartel o una tisis tuberculosa de padre y muy señor mío.
V
Y por más que fui y vine, sin dejar la ida por la venida, no he podido saber a punto fijo si, andando el tiempo, murió D. Dimas de buena o de mala muerte. Pero lo que sí is ascertained thing is that bundled the gear, it was not fair to stay on earth to seed rogues. Such, oh dearest reader!, My belief.
But one my friend told me that, strictly speaking compadres, who died Tijereta wanted his soul, who had more wrinkles and folds that range from flirty, drinking water in one of the cauldrons But Botero, and the porter of hell will shouted: "Long out! Do not admit and write. "
This made my friend to the above conjecture that the soul of the scribe did the same with that of Judas Iscariot, which therefore comes to mind and the opportunity is bald, I must note here briefly and in conclusion.
old chronicles are referred to the apostle who sold Christ began after his crime, accounts himself, and saw that the best way to settle them was to throw the thirty pieces and make capers, become cluster tree.
made his suicide, not written before, as Hogan is customary, a farewell letter, where for more efforts made refused to give him lodging.
The same happened in hell, and desperate and shivering returned to the world looking for somewhere to shelter.
happened to pass by chance, a usurer, whose body had long since migrated support the weary soul of mischief, and that of Judas said, "Here you do not sin" and took up residence in the humanity of the miser. Since then we say that the usurers have the soul of Judas.
And with that, friend reader, and every four years is a leap, put the rounded to the story, wishing you health as well as I had a little effort to give comfort and amusement.
