- XII -

Timbre de amor, con el cual combate,
cativa e prende toda gente humana;
del ánimo gentil derrero mate,
e de las más fermosas soberana.

De la famosa rueda tan cercana
non fue por belleza Virginea,
nin fizo Dido, nin Dampne Penea,
de quien Ovidio grand loor esplana.

Templo emicante donde la cordura
es adorada, e honesta destreza,
silla e reposo de la fermosura,

choro placiente do virtud se reza;
válgame, deesa, tu mesura,
e non me judgues contra gentileza.
