Desprendido de las manos de su mujer, que como tenazas le sujetaban, Ido
volvió a sus mímicas, y Nicanora, sabiendo que no había más medio de
aplacarle que dar rienda suelta a su insana manía para que el ataque
pasara más pronto, le puso en la mano un palillo de tambor que allí
habían dejado los chicos, y empujándole por la espalda... «Ya puedes
escabecharnos--le dijo--, anda, anda; estamos allí, en el camarín, tan
agasajaditos... Fuerte, hijo; dale firme y sácanos el mondongo...».

Freed from the hands of his wife, which had held him like pliers, Ido returned to his mimics, and Nicanora, knowing that there was no other way to appease him than to give free rein to his insane mania so that the attack would be over sooner, put in his hand a drumstick that the children had left there, and pushing him ahead... "Now you can stun us" she said, "go, go; we are here, in the alcove, so entertained... Loud, son; grip it tightly and show that you've got some guts!...".
