| Peruvian tradition written by Don Ricardo Palma in 1860. What is the suffering of a woman betrayed, angry, desperate. Far can you get your revenge. can reach as much as he did Mrs. *** |
is always nice to raise our thoughts to the days of childhood, the age of rosy illusions, where free of anxiety about Tomorrow, we believe that the world extends beyond our toys space and covering our eyes. Blessed are times when we imagine the whole mountain oregano, and where no one has whispered in our ears even that friendship is a farm and love an article of commerce!
yesterday went about my memory album, and stopped suddenly at the memory of a girl, companion of my childhood, muddled and mischievous if any. When glasses hid his grandmother, lit a firecracker to a cat's tail or did some other picardihuela, used to apply a good old pair of stripes, exclaiming:
"This girl is the very foot of Judas. It's worse than that lady ***.
Me, I can say that both the old stressed about it from the evil of Madame de ***, I took by the above one more mortally afraid that the coconut. Walking, walking, figuring out how much old manuscript fell on my own, do not let a witch who lives in Lima penitentiary whose cunning Inquisition were not known me, and when you least expect it, tasting it I found that one of the books of the Cabildo and the statistics from real data exist on my lady's ***. Not that odd! Well I have to write this story, if only to prove that by crafty and cunning and roguish it to become, with time and water, the poor girl who promised so disastrous as the grandmother, and much later strive to give the devil the flesh to offer to God the bones, never, in the centuries of the centuries, woman present crimes exceeds the lady of my story. Enough
introitus, Al accoutrement and chop points! I
Mademoiselle de *** was for the years of 1601 a fresh and lovely bud of sixteen summers, as a libertine dreams to cure dyspepsia. *** Lord of his father and perhaps the first fortune three times crowned city, committed the tontuna to die leaving her heiress Dona Sebastiana under the supervision of D. Blas Medina, Asturian and more severe than the same plume D. Pelayo. Imagine the reader whether it would be desirable and able to whet the appetite of a girl less greedy man that in addition to his youth, good coramvobis and wealth, had the rare good fortune not to bring father and mother to marry.
By this century the issue was not wearing wedding as steamed as in the time we reach. It is! This was a century of obscurantism and not progress, as of today, where tomorrow takes husband today that last night girl playing with dolls. There is no shortage of cooking damned who say that marriages are not a day for women more than a toy exchange, and entangled as it goes this blessed seam clerk or awareness. Again, then, that in 1601 the marriage was a point that wore many points, and the good of the tutor, who guessed at Dona Sebastiana itching to respond to the first porter I say that the bid, decided not to allow gathering of youths in house and save the girl as a miser's treasure chest.
women's education quality, then, was reduced to read enough to impose the life of the saint's day, writing not very fluently enough to make the point of washing, and playing the harp, with more or less delicacy, about the right to show off their skills in a Mass of Christmas. This, a lot of repeat chorus diptychs and ninth, a bit of sweet spice and salad and no treatment of people, and you stop counting, was the education of the millionaire and beautiful damsel. God have I of your hand and free me from blame for her to tutor! Blame the century, good backs had their fate to endure this and all charges that come in fancy me throw in tow.
Society of Dona Sebastiana forced apart scraper harp teacher, who was an old ugly able to give a fear fear itself, was reduced to a chubby monk seraphic guardian and his son, a boy of ten seminarian and eight years and whom his father dreamed of turning around a canon of mercy. D. Carlitos, in the presence of his father and diners, adopted a nonsense airecito anointing and assimilated it to an angel of the altarpiece. But put your trust in simpletons, reader of mine, and damn the pudding if you do not get any day itch to scratch. Six months
Dona Sebastiana had already held by your tutor. The boy left the faculty of the school every Sunday to spend the day at the house of your father, and a black point of prayers accompanied him to deliver it to the janitors of the seminar.
But it was written, D. Carlos had more fans than the theological folios to study in that mysterious book called the woman. The Jesuit Sanchez with its treaty churrigueresco Marriage, enhances the curiosity of the boys more than the serpent that tempted Eve. Maybe some of the chapters fell to the seminary, and here's how bad race poundage destruction was a young, naive chaste as Joseph, and perhaps deprived the church of Lima, one of the most splendid lights or lights . This preamble should give you, reader, reported that precautions magu D. Blas to preserve unharmed the pledge was given in trust, the first cuddles that launched the fiery point-blank range on the inflammable young girl, she was not pads, and every Sunday the lovers took advantage of the time the tutor, as a good son of the lazy Spain, used a nap, to be a surfeit of honeyed words and other things that I suspect should be between lovers.
Man is fire, the woman tow, and as a spark sufficient to cause a major fire that sung by Homer, is the devil suddenly y. .. Blows!

Thus passed five years in which, having died D. Blas Medina, took the girl in the free enjoyment of their fat primogeniture, and Don Carlos hung the robe of a seminarian, convinced that God did not call path of the Church. D. Blas, who in his youth had played a valuable township in Cuzco and further reinforced after his fortune in trade, he bequeathed his successor a negligible flow.
lad was made to camp by their respects, to attend the world, from the austerity of his late father had held off, and succeed in any order.
The love I had felt for Sebastianito vanished. Love was spent, and the boy needed to go hunting for news. Forgot his word to marry and legitimize the two children of their secret love affairs have taken place, and when I least expected the poor love, he received a letter D. Carlos the news that he had married in facie ecclesiæ a daughter of Captain arquebusiers D. Santiago Pedrosa, called Dolores.
Imagine the reader the effect that the note would produce in the minds of the passionate woman. For a while he walked his honor in tongues of the gossips of Lima, who made her sleeves and hoods. Dona Sebastiana roared also had the trial not very sane. In the end, as every woman who has loved frantically at the creature turned to the Creator, which means in plain language that became blessed, and blessed belt, which is one more item; blessed to read the booklet which published by a Jesuit spiritual Alfalfa title for the sheep of Jesus Christ, whose name was the consecrated Host dog bun (bread sinner).
However, provided that in the temple or on the street was the perjured lover escandalosísimas scenes took place. Doña Sebastiana not backward in their efforts to re-engage the rebels, and it had empestillado in the silly fad of giving the world an example of conjugal fidelity.
And so three years passed, until the unhappy became convinced that he had nothing to expect from the love of D. Carlos, and then decided to change tactics and devote himself to revenge.
III was a Monday, and leaving D. Carlos of the Mass of St. Augustine found his shadow or nightmare embodied in Sebastiana.
-Do me the favor, Mr. D. Carlos, to hear a few last words I want to say.
"I am at your service, madam, if not insist on putting on a love that today would be a crime - the young man replied.
-Placemsee you as loyal husband. You know I see a religious life and severe, and thus cast aside the apprehension that tells you anything you remember our mistake.
"Speak, madame.
"I have a son rather rich, as you know. In Lima and under my protection is not possible to acquire the education they deserve. Galleon sets sail tomorrow for Spain Callao, and the child he will march to Madrid, where he will be assisted by their relatives. I pray that you, his father's blessing for you to take to reach a prosperous voyage.
"Your claim is fair, ma'am, and I offer you then go through your house. Midi
per edge was when D. Carlos hugged his two sons in the living Sebastiana. His father's heart overflowed with love for them and their caresses and advice coming from the child were not limited to Europe. The daughter, an indication of Dona Sebastiana, offered his father tenderly some biscuits and a glass of wine regions. D. Carlos ate and drank with the kids, but not the mother also why they should be made, and suddenly his body slumped on the couch.
The poor had drunk a narcotic.

Two hours later a carriage stopped at the yard of a ranch near the city. From it came
Dona Sebastiana and her two children. The coachman, helped by another slave, led to D. Carlos limp to the bed in one room he had prepared the vengeful lady.
This, alone with his victim, tied her arms tightly and feet, and waited to come out of their fatal lethargy.
D. Printing Carlos, on coming to herself, not enough to paint our pen. Here we give the floor to the reporter:
Sebastiana, after completing a D. Carlos of expletives, told to prepare to die in satisfaction of their perfidy. Immediately called his son, and placing it in the light of his father, he said: "I loved when your father was my lover. He left me, mocking my innocence, and is the husband of another woman, that he has not done as I sacrifice his honor. Vile procedure is the source of the hatred that now I have, in force I want to die in the presence of this infamous, who keep rejecting items belonging to it. " So fiercely struck the child, cut off his head and flung it on D. Carlos. Then he called his daughter, and with the same relationship and he likewise killed. Then, lavishing the most egregious insults began to cortr limb by limb from the body of D. Carlos, until he was expiring. Completed horrible carnage, buried at night, in conjunction with the coachman, the three bodies, and quietly returned to Lima.
The uproar in the city caused the disappearance of a subject as bienquisto as was D. Carlos and prosecution of his wife's family forced the Viceroy to give two thousand dollars apiece that intimation of Medina, and this impelled the coachman incentive to disclose the crime. It was a great public outcry. The offender confessed their crimes under torture and was sentenced at the Royal Court, and sentenced to hang and then hands off her, placed on a pike in the outskirts of the city, heading to the ranch where he committed these horrible crimes .
In the forty-eight hours spent in the chapel, noticed he was not so fierce woman less distress. Quite calmly said: "After my vengeance fulfilled, await without fear death."

Mrs. *** was the first woman hanged Lima's main square.
