The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote de la Mancha

 Don
Quixote
de
la
Mancha
"With
all
my
heart,"
said
the
young
man,
and
without
waiting
for
more
pressing
he
seated
himself
on
the
trunk
of
a
felled
oak,
and
tuning
his
rebeck,
presently
began
to
sing
to
these
words.
ANTONIO'S
BALLAD
I
know
well
that
thou
does
love
me,
My
Olalla,
even
though
Eyes
of
thine
have
never
spoken
–
Love’s
mute
tongues
–
to
tell
me
so.
Since
I
know
thou
knowest
my
passion,
Of
thy
love
I
am
more
sure;
No
love
every
was
unhappy
When

it
was
both
frank
and
pure.
True
it
is,
Olalla,
sometimes
Thou
a
heart
of
bronze
hast
shown,
And
it
seemed
to
me
that
bosom,
White
and
fair,
was
made
of
stone.
Yet
in
spite
of
all
repulses
And
a
chastity
so
cold,
It
appeared
that
I
Hope’s
garment
By
the
hem
did
clutch
and
hold.
For
my
faith
I
ever
cherished;
It
would
rise
to
meet
the
bait;
Spurned,
it
never
did
diminish;
Favored,
it
preferred
to
wait.
Love,
they
say,
hath
gentle
manners:
Thus
it
is
it
shows
its
face;
