La Yedra.
Ottava rhima.
Dizen que Bacco diò
à el Cisso infante
La siempre verde yedra por corona.[1]
De donde con guirnalda semejante
Se adorna el morador d’el Helicona.[2] [M]
Es verde por de fuera su semblante,
Y en lo demas la amarillez la
abona,[3]
Como a’l que en los estudios se
envejeçe,
De do siempre su fama reverdeçe.
[Marginalia - link to text]El poeta.

Cotonea.
The quince
Poma novis tribui debere Cydonia nuptis
Dicitur antiquus constituisse Solon.[1]
Grata ori & stomacho cùm sint, ut & halitus illis
Sit suavis, blandus manet & ore lepos.
Solon of old is said to have ordained that quinces be given to newly-weds, since these are pleasant both to mouth and stomach. As a result their breath is sweet, and winning grace drops from their lips.
1. antiquus...Solon, ‘Solon of old’. See Plutarch, Coniugalia praecepta, Moralia 138 D.
