Mañanica era
Language: Spanish (Español)
Mañanica era, mañana de San Juan1 se decía al fin, cuando aquella diosa Venus dentro de un fresco jardín tomando estaba la fresca a la sombra de un jazmín, cabellos en su cabeza, parecía un serafín. Sus mejillas y sus labios como color de rubí y el objeto de su cara figuraba un querubín; allí de flores floridas hacía un rico cojín, de rosas una guirnalda para el que venía a morir, ¡ah!, lealmente por amores sin a nadie descubrir.
