O perseguido, quando tal ouviu, tirou do maior perigo coragem para fugir, rompendo a espessura e saltando a parede da tapada para o campo de restolho em que o arreeiro andava apanhando palha, e Simão esperava o desfecho da montaria.

The hunted man, hearing this, drew from his utmost peril the courage to flee, breaking through the tangle and leaping the enclosure wall into the stubble-field where the muleteer was gathering straw, and Simão awaited the end of the hunt.
