Y no tiene una vida mental imaginada.
Si del hombre que adora se comprende engañada
Recibe lo que sobra, y a su lado se acuesta.
No por eso posee la mujer, todo entero,
Al que, sin ser amante, puede ser compañero;
Acaso él también sueña lo mismo que soñamos.
Y, sobre el nudo diario de su vida tranquila,
Regulada, en su pecho luminoso vigila
Un ideal femenino, cuya clase ignoramos.”
