Poor John of God, after the extasy
  of the love of Ancieta, he was unfaithful.
He went through three months of grave bitterness,
  and after slowly suffering,
He cured himself with copal and with the capsules
  of Sandalo Midy.

Later in love with the hysterical Luisa,
  sentimental blonde,
He became thin, and was becoming consumptive
  And after a year and a half or more
He cured himself with bromine and with the ether
  capsules of Clertán.

Later, disillusioned with his life,
  the subtle philosopher,
He read Leopardi and Schopenhauer
  and in a moment of spite,
He cured himself for good with the capsules
  of lead from a gun.
