An untutored, brilliant mind

Read the full text in our reader

A sua inteligência sem cultura, mas brilhante como o sol de nossa terra, vigorosa como a vegetação deste solo, guiava-o nesse raciocínio com uma lógica e uma prudência, dignas do homem civilizado; previa todas as hipóteses, combinava todas as probabilidades, e preparava-se para realizar o seu plano com a certeza e a energia de ação que ninguém possuía em grau tão elevado.

The setting

His intelligence, uncultivated but brilliant as the sun of our land, vigorous as the vegetation of this soil, guided him in that reasoning with a logic and a prudence worthy of civilized man; he foresaw every hypothesis, weighed every probability, and made himself ready to carry out his plan with the certainty and energy of action that no one possessed in so high a degree.
