La temeridad.

TERCETOS.

En vano aprieta el freno el carretero
A quien lleva el cavallo desbocado
A derribarle de un despeņadero.
No te confies de hombre sonlocado,
En quien no ay uso de razon entero,
Siendo por su alvedrio governado.[1]

Notes:

1.  In general see Plato’s image of the chariot of the soul, Phaedrus, 246.

    La viįiosa delicadeza.

    Ottava rhima.

    Muestra el Armiņo la delicadeza
    Viįiosa,[1] mas la causa no se dello.
    Por aventura es porque en su terneza
    Se halla luxuria? ō porque el tierno vello
    D’el orna de las damas la belleza?
    Llamaron ā la Marta unos zibello,[2]
    Por ser de la luxuria afęminada
    (Como el Almizque) seņal apropiada.

    Notes:

    1.  The ‘white mouse’ of the original Latin is here given as ‘armiņo’ = ermine.

    2.  marta / zibello, ‘civet cat’, one source of musk, an ingredient in many perfumes.
