Chapter XXVII
Sancho leads the curate and barber, now in disguises, to the
mountains where he originally left Don Quixote with the hope of convincing
Quixote to return with them to El Toboso.
Once they arrive at the mountain pass, they agree to wait for Sancho to
find his master and bring him to them; but during that time they met the
madman, Cardenio, who tells them his entire miserable love story about his lost
love, Luscinda, to the evil Don Fernando, and how he ended up living in these mountains.
Chapter XXVIII
As Cardenio finishes telling his story, the three men hear someone else lamenting and go to seek out the voice, which turns out to be a young woman, Dorotea, who
is concealing her identity and also hiding from her troubles in the mountains
of Sierra Morena. She tells them of her complicated
situation revealing that she is connected to Cardenio’s story and that his love, Luscinda, is not lost after all.
