Alexia Gonzalez
Já, Marfiza cruel, me não maltrata
Saber que usas comigo de cautelas,
Qu'inda te espero ver, por causa d'elas,
Arrependida de ter sido ingrata.
Com o tempo, que tudo desbarata,
Teus olhos deixarão de ser estrelas;
Verás murchar no rosto as faces belas,
E as tranças d'oiro converter-se em prata.
Pois se sabes que a tua formosura
Por força há de sofrer da idade os danos,
Por que me negas hoje esta ventura?
Guarda para seu tempo os desenganos,
Gozemo-nos agora, enquanto dura,
Já que dura tão pouco a flor dos anos
