| Front | -No son los amores como los que vuestra merced piensa -dijo el galeote-; que los míos fueron que quise tanto a una canasta de colar, atestada de ropa blanca, que la abracé conmigo tan fuertemente que, a no quitármela la justicia por fuerza, aún hasta agora no la hubiera dejado de mi voluntad. Fue en fragante, no hubo lugar de tormento; concluyóse la causa, acomodáronme las espaldas con ciento, y por añadidura tres precisos de gurapas, y acabóse la obra. |
