El Amor de la virtud.
Dialogo. Lettor. Amor.
SONETO.
L. Do està
tu flecha y arco di Cupido,
Con que solias clavar el tierno pecho?
Do estan tus alas, y tu fuego hecho
Para abrasar qualquier hombre naçido?

Estas coronas tres do te an venido,
Y esotra en la cabeza? A. No ha derecho
En mi la Venus, à quien yo desecho,
Lettor, que no soy de ella conçevido.
Yo soy aquel Amor de virtud santto
Que las almas ençiendo, y las mantengo,
Y à contemplar en alto las levanto.
De virtud las coronas son que tengo,
Y la de la prudençia (por ser tanto
Su honor) en la cabeza la sostengo.[1]
