Altamirano : [about native boy] Don Cabeza, how can you possibly refer to this child as an animal?
Cabeza : A parrot can taught to sing, Your Eminence.
Altamirano : Ah yes, but how does one teach it to sing as melodiously as this?
Cabeza : Your Eminence. This is a child of the jungle, an animal with a human voice. If it were human, an animal would cringe at its vices. These creatures are lethal and lecherous. They will have to be subdued by the sword and brought to profitable labor by the whip.
