El vaso de Nestor.
TERCETOS.
Este es aquel gran vaso (celebrado
Dçel docto Homero) de
Nestor prudente,
Con puntas de oro de plata labrado.[1]
Link to an image of this page [L4v p168]
Quatro assas tiene en cuyo preminente
Lugar de cada qual està esculpida
Una paloma muy resplandeciente.
Solo Nestor
despues de larga vida
Levanto el vaso de estos dos hondones
Cuya declaracion aun no es sabida.
Mas los que buscan physicas razones
Dizen ser este el çielo plateado,
Que tal color le dan sus invenciones.
Las puntas las estrellas an notado.
Y piensan entenderse las Cabrillas
Por las que el uvo palomas llamado.
Los dos hondones son las maravillas
Que cantan de unas Osas los poetas
Que dizen que en el çielo tienen sillas.
Nestor entiende aquestas tan perfettas
Moralidades d’el cielo, y advierte
Las cosas de las sciencias mas secretas
Qual haze en su destreza el hombre fuerte.
