— Αλοίμονο! της είπε· αν δεν έχετε βιασθή από δυο βουλγάρους, αν δεν ελάβατε δυο μαχαιριές στην κοιλιά, αν δε σας χαλάσανε δυο πύργους σας, αν δε σφάξανε μπροστά στα μάτια σας δυο πατέρες, δυο μητέρες κι' αν δεν είδατε δυο εραστές σας μαστιγωμένους σ' ένα άουτο-ντα-φε, δε βλέπω πώς θα μπορούσατε να με υπερβήτε. Προσθέστε, πως γεννήθηκα βαρώνη με εβδομηνταδυό γενεές κι' ότι κατάντησα μαγέρισσα. — Δεσποινίς, απάντησε η γριά. Δεν ξέρετε την καταγωγή μου.
