De la Muerte y d’el Amor.[1]
SONETO.
La Muerte y el Amor siendo perdidos
Juntos posaron una noche escura,
Durmieron juntos, y mi desventura
A ambos hizo çiegos sin sentidos.
Que allà a’l amaneçer medio dormidos
Les trocò los virotes mi ventura,
Los de oro uvo tomar la Muerte dura,
Y el niño los de hueso amorteçidos.

Ambos despues con las flechas trocadas
Por el mundo à diversos lastimaron,
Y ansi fueron sus llagas mal miradas:
Que mis floridos años se acabaron,
Y los de el viejo que en las no escusadas
Sombras avian de estar, se enamoraron.
1. The iconography of the emblems with the Latin titles ‘De morte et amore’ and ‘In formosam fato praereptam’ (next emblem) is confused in many editions.
