La Mancha, where we found Venta de Carde after which we begin to ascend the mountains.
This was a dangerous and difficult way, through which it was necessary to pass to go into Andalusia: it was the terror of travellers, the most intrepid could not pass it without trembling; at every step new dangers presented themselves. The moun tains insensibly approached each other, and seemed meeting over the head of the passenger, or closing before him to stop his way. Rocks, seemingly suspended in air, threatened to crush him to pieces in their fall. The rugged ground scarcely afforded any place for the feet Of the horses. The Spa niards named this passage Despena Perros, the energetic sense of which it is not easy to give in translation: the literal signification is, Kill-dog over precipice.
The difficulty of the passage was not its only danger; travellers were exposed to the attack of wolves assembled in packs, particularly in winter; robbers, secure against all pursuit, plun dered with impunity; assassinations were frequent; not a house, not a but was to be met With in the distance often or twelve leagues.
