“Metaphor: «Barbado y entre sábanas de dislocado espectro, osa ahuyentar las olas, cual mal comediante la patraña del despropósito, pues antes que fraile barbero fue la mar, loada de pocos lobos y burla de los muchos necios» Answer: La cita es una descripción irónica o sarcástica de alguien que pretende dominar o escapar de una situación que le supera, como el mar o la vida. El hablante le compara con un hombre barbudo y envuelto en sábanas blancas, que parece un fantasma o un loco, y que intenta espantar las olas con gestos ridículos, como un mal actor que representa una farsa o una mentira. El hablante le recuerda que el mar es más antiguo y poderoso que él, y que solo merece el respeto de unos pocos valientes y el desprecio de muchos necios.”
