Ya habéis oido la confesión deste pobre pecador, con la cual ha publicado en vuestra presencia sus podridumbres y hediondeces. ¿O por ventura ha ocultado algunos de sus pecados en vuestra presencia? Y si es ansí, ha hecho burla de vuestra majestad y con desacato y grande ofensa de vuestra majestad se ha arrojado en una sima y en una profunda barranca, y él mismo se ha enlazado y enredado; él mismo ha merecido ser ciego y tullido y que se le pudran sus miembros, y que sea pobre y mísero. ¡Ay, dolor!
