También los que están en los oficios militares, que tienen poder de matar y derramar sangre, allí se criaron. Por esto conviene, hijo mío muy amado, que vayas allí muy de voluntad y que no tengas afectión a ninguna cosa de tu casa. Y no pienses, hijo, dentro de ti: "Vive mi madre y mi padre.

No te acuerdes de ninguna destas cosas. Oye lo que has de hacer, que es barrer y coger las barredoras, y aderezar las cosas que están en casa. Hasta de levantar de mañana; velarás de noche. Lo que te fuere mandada harás, y el oficio que te dieren tomarás. Y cuando fuere menester saltar o correr para hacer algo,
