99. Obrero, culto, bribón,/ A la misma tabla ván… (Ni está todos los que son/ Ni son todos los que están) (99. Equals. Workman, scholar, scoundrel,/ On the same slab end;/ And all who should be are not there,/ Nor are people really what they would appear.)

69. Yo por el pueblo trabajo,/ Viva la igualdad, ¡que viva!/ La igualdad…con los de arriba,/ Pero no con los de abajos. (69. Public Servant. I work for the people!/ Long live equality! Viva!/ Equality— with those who are above me,/ Never with those below.)

35. Tú serías buen grabador/ Pero toda tu destreza/ No te libró de que fueras/ A la tumba de cabeza./ Sacude allí la pereza/ Y deja de ser lo antes/ Que aburrías a los marchantes,/ T ahora en tu sepulcro labra/ Con buriles elegantes/ En tu obsequio una palabra.
