Note 126 — EL CAPITÁN VENENO[4]
Reading edition
balazo de la frente, bullet wound in his forehead: in the Diario I, 168, Alarcón tells of a captive Moor who had a terrible scar in his forehead: nos mostró una larga cicatriz que le atravesaba toda la frente. ¿Cómo no moriste?—La bala se deslizó sobre el hueso,—respondió, He showed us a long scar which crossed his whole forehead. Why didn't it kill you?—The ball glanced on the bone, he answered.
