But I have never met anyone as emotionally tight-fisted as you, so grudging in your generosity, nor anyone more cowardly, not even when you carried grenades in your briefcase and said to the policeman who stopped you, “What’s the matter, have you never seen a student before?”’
Nunca he conocido a nadie más avara que tú, la generosa, ni tampoco más cobarde, pese a llevar a la universidad armas metidas en la cartera y responder al policía que te paró: “¿Por qué me mira así? ¿Es que nunca ha visto a una estudiante?”».
      And the kindly Arcade adjured the Cherub to fly first to the aid of his brethren who, though dwelling amid the soft clouds with the sound of citterns and their cups of paradisal wine around them, were in more wretched plight than mankind bowed over the grudging earth. For the latter have a conception of justice, while the angels rejoice in iniquity.
Y el bondadoso Arcadio exhortaba al querube para que volase primero en socorro de sus hermanos, que viven en las nubes entre música de cítaras y deleites paradisíacos, más dignos de compasión que los hombres encorvados sobre la tierra avara, porque los hombres conciben la justicia y los ángeles se gozan en la iniquidad.
