When we came to Pampeluna itself, we found it so indeed; and to me, that had been always used to a hot climate, and to countries where I could scarce bear any clothes on, the cold was insufferable; nor, indeed, was it more painful than surprising to come but ten days before out of Old Castile, where the weather was not only warm but very hot, and immediately to feel a wind from the Pyrenean Mountains so very keen, so severely cold, as to be intolerable and to endanger benumbing and perishing of our fingers and toes.
Jómagam teljesen a meleg éghajlathoz szoktam, ahol a ruhát is alig viseli el magán az ember, és ez a hideg most kibírhatatlannak tűnt. Fájdalmas meglepetés volt, annál is inkább, mert tíz napja még olyan tájakon jártunk, ahol nem csak meleg, hanem hőség uralkodott.
