Nunca fue pena mayor
Language: Spanish (Español)
Available translation(s): ENG
Nunca fue pena mayor Nin tormento tan estraño, Que iguale con el dolor Que resçibo del engaño. Y este conocimiento Haze mis días tan tristes, En pensar el pensamiento Que por amores me distes, Me haze aver por mejor La muerte, y por menor daño, Que el tormento y el dolor Que resçibo del engaño.
