XI. Together Vidas and Raquél stepped forth apart thereon: "Let us give him a fair present for our profit he has won. Good Martin Antolínez in Burgos that dost dwell, We would give thee a fair present for thou deserves well. Therewith get breeches and a cloak and mantle rich and fine. Thou hast earned it. For a present these thirty marks are thine. For it is but just and honest, and, moreover, thou wilt stand Our warrant in this bargain whereto we set our hand." Don Martin thanked them duly and took the marks again. He yearned to leave the dwelling and well he wished the twain. He is gone out from Burgos. O'er the Arlanzon he went. And him who in good hour was born he found within his tent. The Cid arose and welcomed him, with arms held wide apart: "Thou art come, Antolínez, good vassal that thou art! May you live until the season when you reap some gain of me." "Here have I come, my Campeador, with as good heed as might be. Thou hast won marks six hundred, and thirty more have I. Ho! order that they strike the tents and let us swiftly fly. In San Pedro de Cardeñas let us hear the cock ere day. We shall see your prudent lady, but short shall be our stay. And it is needful for us from the kingdom forth to wend, For the season of our suffrance drawns onward to its end." XII. They spake these words and straightaway the tent upgathered then, My lord the Cid rode swiftly with all his host of men. And forth unto Saint Mary's the horse's head turned he, And with his right hand crossed himself: "God, I give thanks to thee Heaven and Earth that rulest. And thy favor be my weal Holy Saint Mary, for forthright must I now quit Castile. For I look on the King with anger, and I know not if once more I shall dwell there in my life-days. But may thy grace watch o'er My parting, Blessed Virgin, and guard me night and day. If thou do so and good fortune come once more in my way, I will offer rich oblations at thine altar, and I swear Most solemnly that I will chant a thousand masses there." XIII. And the lord Cid departed fondly as a good man may. Forthwith they loosed the horses, and out they spurred away. Said good Martin Antolínez in Burgos that did dwell: "I would see my lady gladly and advise my people well What they shall do hereafter. It matters not to me Though the King take all. Ere sunrise I shall come unto thee." XIV. Martin went back to Burgos but my lord the Cid spurred on To San Pedro of Cardeñas as hard as horse could run, With all his men about him who served him as is due. And it was nigh to morning, and the cocks full oft they crew, When at last my lord the Campeador unto San Pedro came. God's Christian was the Abbot. Don Sancho was his name; And he was saying matins at the breaking of the day. With her five good dames in waiting Xiména there did pray. They prayed unto Saint Peter and God they did implore: "O thou who guidest all mankind, succor the Campeador."
