O pobre índio tímido e esquivo, não se animava a chegar-se à casa, senão quando via de longe a D. Antônio de Mariz passeando sobre a esplanada; adivinhava que naquela habitação só o coração nobre do velho fidalgo sentia por ele alguma estima.
The poor Indian, timid and shy, did not dare to draw near the house except when he saw from afar D. Antônio de Mariz strolling on the esplanade; he guessed that in that dwelling only the noble heart of the old nobleman felt any esteem for him.
