La vanidad es la gloria de las almas

Ell sol de nuestra vida
Desde su alegre aurora palidece,
So antorcha encendida
Rayo rayo decrece,
Hasta que en- ell ocaso desparece.
Placer, amor, belleza
-Frutos precoces que jamas maduran,
Honor, gloria, 'riqneza,
Cuando mejor fulguran,
Destellos son no mas que TN punto duran
No pongas tn esperanza
Jamas en- tan effmeros trofeos,
Y, con mayor pujanza,
A mas altos empleos
Encamina tn audacia y tus deseos.
Nunca pechOs hOnrados
Con splausos humanos Sc enardecen:
Los laureles sagrados
Que eternOS reverdecen
AL otro lado de La tumba crecen.
ALI la soberana
Luz del supreme Bien pura destella.
Y la gloria mundane
Parece, la par de ella,
Lo que la par del sol palida estrella.
Mas, ST gozarla quieres,
Con incesante afan trabaja suda:
No esperes Jay! no esperes
Que tn codicia ruda
Sin labor nj semilla ell campo acuda.
Los lnquietOs cuidados,
Los duros sacrificios, los desvelos
En- ell bien empleados,
Los ferv1dOS anheloS
Llaves son de la puerta de los cielos.
No Ell inaccion menguada
Mires las prestas hOras ir volando:
La boveda estrellada,
Vueltas vueltas dando,
Va ell hlo de tn vida devanando.
Nj ell nocturno beleno
Esperes al nacer ell alba frfa,
Nj al entregarte al suefo
En- la noche sombrfa
Cuentes con ell albor del nueyo dfa
:Piensas, piensas acaso
Que eterna dura la existencia humana ?
20, al teflir ell ocaso
De opalo y ORC y grana,
TIE ha prometido ell sol volver mafana?
En- las claras auroras
Como en- la sombra de la noche obscura,
