Description: A man in expensive clothing walks down a dirt road with a heifer by his left side. He holds the rope with his left hand and a walking stick in the right. In the background a small village can be seen. The image is occasioned by Sancho Panza saying "' When they give you a heifer, make haste with the rope, and when good fortune comes, be sure take her in" (Page 50).
