Part 2, Chapter 29 de 129 · Part 1 · 10 min para leer el chapter

In Chapter 29, Don Quixote takes a fishing boat onto the Ebro River, believing enchantment carries him toward someone needing rescue, and mistakes watermills for a prison. The millers save him and Sancho from drowning, but the boat breaks apart, leaving them to pay fifty reales while Don Quixote blames rival enchanters.

Qué sucede

  1. At the Ebro River, Don Quixote orders the animals tied up and boards a boat despite Sancho’s doubts.
  2. As they drift, Don Quixote claims they travel enormous distances, while Sancho points to the nearby bank and animals.
  3. Don Quixote mistakes watermills for a prison and threatens the millers who try to stop the approaching boat.
  4. The boat overturns near the wheels, and the millers pull both men from the water.
  5. Don Quixote blames opposing enchanters, abandons his imagined rescue, and pays the fishermen fifty reales for their wrecked boat.

Don Quixote attributes the failed journey to opposing enchanters rather than questioning his original belief. This explanation lets him abandon the rescue without accepting the millers’ account.
