    • 1707, Salvador Francisco Roel, Entremés ao real e feliz parto da nosa raíña:
      Afonso:
      E como està o afillado?
      Christobo:
      Esse jà quer ir a Escola,
      pero porque non tèn sayo
      està decote na Eyra
      para escorrentar o Gando.
      Afonso:
      Pois esso non e ben feyto,
      porque e vivo coma vn allo,
      fino coma vnha pimenta,
      e se quer ser Lecenceado
      an que venda os bois do jugo
      lle teño de dar estado.
      Afonso:
      How is doing my godchild?
      Christobo:
      He already want to go to school,
      but since he has no robe
      is all the time in the field
      to drive away the livestock.
      Afonso:
      But this is not correct,
      because he is smart as a whip,
      acute as a pepper grain,
      and if he wants to be a bachelor,
      even if I have to sell the yoke oxen,
      I ought to give him estate.
