| Back | Thou knowest, my friend, what my mother used to say, that one must live long to see much; I say it because I expect to see more if I live longer; for I don't expect to stop until I see thee a farmer of taxes or a collector of revenue, which are offices where, though the devil carries off those who make a bad use of them, still they make and handle money. |

| Front | Ya sabes tú, amigo, que decía mi madre que era menester vivir mucho para ver mucho: dígolo porque pienso ver más si vivo más; porque no pienso parar hasta verte arrendador o alcabalero, que son oficios que, aunque lleva el diablo a quien mal los usa, en fin en fin, siempre tienen y manejan dineros. |
