This I learnt from the man Johann, whom I was compelled to trust and send back to Zenda, where, by the way, Rupert Hentzau had him soundly flogged for daring to smirch the morals of Zenda by staying out all night in the pursuits of love.
Johannengandik esanda jakin nuen hori, behartuta bainengoen berarengan sinetsi eta Zendara bidaltzera; han, gainera, Rupert Hentzauek gogor zigortu zuen Zendako-moraltasuna zikintzera ausartzeagatik, gau osoa kanpoan eman zuelakoan maitasun kontuetan.
