sPor que Ia vida nos parece bellaf
iQaS placer nos ofrece mientras dura,
d no hay edad nj condieion en- ella
que dolor no SO vuelva y smargursg
Nifios, IN ademan nos intimida;
juguetes somos en- la edad florida
de la fortuna y del amor insane;
y ell fin cubiertos de cabello cano,
abrumados gemimos
al paso de los af1os que vivimos.
va ell ansia de adquirir nos atormenta,
va ell tenor de perder nor pone susie:
lid continue y violents
entire ST tienen siempre los malvados,
y perdurable lid tambi6n sustenta
contra la envidis y la falacia ell iusto.
Fantasmas engendrados
por loca far tasfa,
suefio, delirio son nuestros cuidados;
cuando al cabo con verg1enza un dia
Sc desep gafla nuestra mente ciegs,
entonces es cuando Ia n lerte llega.
