yet the poor knight still didn't wake up, until the barber brought a large bucketful of cold water from the well and drenched him from head to toe, and then he did awaken, but not fully enough to be aware of his situation.
In "Don Quixote," a comical situation unfolds when a poor knight finds himself in a deep slumber, oblivious to his surroundings. His undisturbed rest continues until an unexpected intervention occurs. The local barber, seeing the knight in such a state, feels compelled to take action and fetches a large bucket of cold water.
This dramatic dousing serves as the catalyst that finally rouses the knight from his sleep. However, even after being drenched, he remains in a dazed state, unable to fully grasp the reality of his circumstances. This moment highlights not only the absurdity of the knight's predicament but also the humor that permeates Cervantes' narrative.
