Para mi sola nacio don Quixote y yo para el CERVANTESB

Advents we greet of great and smallC
Much we extol that may not liveD
Yet to the new born Type we giveE
No care at allC
-
This year three centuries past by ageF
More maimed than by LEPANTO'S fightG
This year CERVANTES gave to lightG
His matchless pageF
-
Whence first outrode th' immortal PairH
The half crazed Hero and his hindI
To make sad laughter for mankindI
And whence they fareH
-
Throughout all Fiction still where chanceJ
Allies Life's dulness with its dreamsK
Allies what is with what but seemsK
Fact and RomanceJ
-
O Knight of fire and Squire of earthL
O changing give and take betweenM
The aim too high the aim too meanM
I hail your birthL
-
Three centuries past in sunburned SPAINN
And hang on Time's PANTHEON wallC
My votive tablet to recallC
That lasting gainN
