“here, brother sancho panza,” said the don quixote when he saw it, “we may plunge our hands up to the elbows in what they call adventures; but observe, even shouldst thou see me in the greatest danger in the world, thou must not put a hand to thy sword in my defense, unless indeed thou perceives that those who assail me are rabble or bade folk; for in that case thou mayest very properly aid me; but if they be knights it is on no account permitted or allowed thee by the laws of knighthood to me until thou hast been dubbed a knight.”

“no soft words with me, for i know you, lying rabble,” said don quixote, and without waiting for a reply he spurred rocinante and with leveled lance charged the first friar with such fury and determination, that if the friar has not flung himself off the mule, he would have brought him to the ground against his will, and sore wounded, if not killed outright. the second brother, seeing how his comrade was treated, drove his heels into his castle of a mule and made off across the country faster than the wind.
