"The author of that book, too," said the curate, "is a great friend of mine, and his verses from his own mouth are the admiration of all who hear them, for such is the sweetness of his voice that he enchants when he chants them: it gives rather too much of its eclogues, but what is good was never yet plentiful: let it be kept with those that have been set apart.
-También el autor de ese libro -replicó el cura- es grande amigo mío, y sus versos en su boca admiran a quien los oye; y tal es la suavidad de la voz con que los canta, que encanta. Algo largo es en las églogas, pero nunca lo bueno fue mucho: guárdese con los escogidos.
