- Afonso:
E como està o afillado?
Christobo:
Esse jà quer ir a Escola,
pero porque non tèn sayo
està decote na Eyra
para escorrentar o Gando.
Afonso:
Pois esso non e ben feyto,
porque e vivo coma vn allo,
fino coma vnha pimenta,
e se quer ser Lecenceado
an que venda os bois do jugo
lle teño de dar estado.- Afonso:

but since he has no robe
is all the time in the field
to drive away the livestock.

because he is smart as a whip,
acute as a pepper grain,
and if he wants to be a bachelor,
even if I have to sell the yoke oxen,
I ought to give him estate.
