Un prêtre et un médecin se tiennent dans une chambre à la plaza de Toros, prêts à administrer, l’un les remèdes de l’âme, l’autre les remèdes du corps ; l’on disait autrefois, et je crois bien que l’on dit encore une messe à leur intention pendant la course. Vous voyez que rien n’est négligé, et que les impresarios sont gens de prévoyance.
