Here Troy Was, Sancho's Wager, and Tosilos on the Road — Don Quixote

Leaving Barcelona, Don Quixote gazes at where he fell and cries Here Troy was, blaming ill-luck not cowardice for dimming his glory, while Sancho calls Fortune a drunken whimsical blind jade. Quixote says heaven preordains events, that each of us is the maker of his own Fortune, and that though he lost honour he keeps his word and will spend the year of the novitiate at home before returning to arms; Sancho refuses long marches on foot and they agree to hang the armour as a trophy rather than for good service a bad return.

At a holiday inn Sancho settles a wager by ruling the fat challenger should peel eleven stone of his flesh to match his opponent, and peasants say he has spoken like a saint and given judgment like a canon before Quixote rides on sad and unable to stop. Tosilos the duke's lacquey meets them with viceroy's letters, denies enchantment in the Rodriguez combat, confesses a hundred strokes of the stick and that the girl became a nun, shares wine with Sancho while calling Quixote a madman, and Sancho agrees that here he is beaten by the Knight of the White Moon before rejoining his master under a tree.
