El membrillo por don se presentasse,

Y que en la boca suave olor dexasse.[1]

Ilex.
The holm-oak
EMBLEMA CCVI.
Duritie nimia[1] quod sese rumperet Ilex,
Symbola civilis seditionis habet.
Because the holm-oak splits spontaneously through excessive inflexibility, it provides symbols for civic discord.
1. Duritie nimia, ‘excessive inflexibility’. Cf. Pliny, Natural History, 16.73.186 (tota ossea est ilex, ‘the holm-oak is entirely bone-like’).
