LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT, 
BY THE SAME, ih 
Translated by the same. 
Odigan que es menester 
Mucho tiempo para amar $ 
Que elamor qué ha de matar 
De un golpe ha de ser. 
Amor que comienza ingrate 
Y el trato Je da valor, 
No se ha de llamar amor 
Sino costumbre de trato. 
E| que vié quiso y maté 
Esse es amor verdadero, 
Y mas quande es e) primere 
Como el gue te tengo yo. 
Mirar,escribir, y hablar 
Aiios un galan y dama, 
Bs hacer. amorcon ama 
Que se Jo han dado a criar. 
Hombre ha de nacer Amor, ‘ 
Luego andar, y ser galan ; 
Que el Amor quenoes Adan 
No ha de tener valor. 
Marques de las Navas. 
Let no one say that there is need 
Of time for love to grow ; 
Ab no! the love that kills indeed 
Dispatches at a blow. 
The spark which but by slow degree? 
Is nursed intoa flame, 
Is habit, friendship, what you please ; 
But love is not its name. 
For love to be completely true, — 
It death at sight should deal, - 
Should be the first one ever knew, 
In short, be that I feel. 
To write, tosigh,aud to converse; 
For years to play the fool ; 
’Tis to put passion out to nurse, 
And send one’s heart to school. 
Love,
