Abbot of the Monastery, a right noble monk, and a great hidalgo.
At that time Don Garcia Tellez was Abbot of the Monastery, a right noble monk, and a great hidalgo.
And when they were all assembled they buried the body of Dona Ximena at the feet of the ivory chair on which the Cid was seated; and the Bishop of Pamplona said mass, and the Abbot Don Garcia Tellez officiated.
After the body of the Cid had been there ten years in all, the Abbot Don Garcia Tellez and Gil Diaz weened that it was no longer fitting for the body to remain in that manner.
After of the noble Cid Campeador had been honourably interred, Gil Diaz his trusty servant abode still in the Monastery of St. Pedro de Cardena, doing service to the graves of the Cid and Dona Ximena, and making their anniversaries, and celebrating masses, and giving great alms to the poor both in food and clothing, for the good of their souls; and in this manner he lived while Don Garcia Tellez was Abbot, and two others after him, and then he died.
