Rosa que al prado, encarnada, te ostentas presuntüosa de grana y carmín bañada: campa lozana y gustosa; pero no, que siendo hermosa tambien serás desdichada. —JUANA INÉS DE LA CRUZ3
3. Mexican lyric poet (1651-1695). The lines read: "Red rose growing in the meadow, you vaunt yourself bravely, bathed in crimson and carmine: a rich and fragrant show. But no:
Being fair, you will be unhappy soon."
