El Sauze.
TERCETO.
A’l Sauze llamò Homero
pierdefruto,[1] [M]
Y diò à entender que el que aborreçe el vino
Jamas en sciencia alguna es absoluto.
[Marginalia - link to text]ὦλεσίκαρπος
1. Homer, Odyssey, 10.510. See Pliny, Natural History, 16.46.110: the willow drops its seed before it is absolutely ripe, and for that reason was called by Homer ‘seed-loser’.
