\n¡Oh, señor nuestro, todo piadoso y misericordioso y nuestro amparo! Dado que vuestra ira y vuestra indignación y vuestras saetas y piedras han gravemente herido a esta pobre gente, sea esto castigo como de padre o madre que castigan a sus hijos tirándolos de las orejas y pellizcándolos en los sobacos, azotándolos con orticas y derramando sobre ellos agua muy fría, y todo esto se hace para que se emienden de sus mocedades y niñerías. Pues ya es ansí que vuestro castigo y vuestra indignación se ha enseñoreado y ha gloriosamente prevalecido sobre estos vuestros siervos, sobre esta pobre gente, bien así como las gotas del agua que después de haber llovido sobre los árboles y cañas verdes, tocándoles el aire caen sobre los que están debaxo de los árboles o cañas. ¡Oh, señor humanísimo! Bien sabéis que la gente popular son como niños, que después de haber sido azotados y castigados lloran y sollozan y se arrepienten de lo que han hecho. Por ventura ya esta gente pobre por razón de vuestro castigo lloran y sospiran y se reprenden a sí mismos, y están murmurando de sí mismos. En vuestra presencia se acusan y tachan en sí sus malas obras y se castigan por ellas. ¡Señor nuestro, humanísimo, piadosísimo, nobilísimo, preciosísimo, baste ya el castigo pasado y séales dado término para se enmendar! ¡No sean acabados aquí, sino otra vez, cuando ya no se emendaren! Perdonaldos y disimulad sus culpas. Cese ya vuestra ira y vuestro
