Y aunque esto es así y éste es el estilo del mundo, que están algunos placeres mezclados con muchas fatigas, no se echa de ver ni aun se teme, ni aun se llora, porque vivimos en este mundo, y hay reinos y señoríos, y dignidades y oficios de honra, unos cerca de los señoríos y reinos, otros cerca de las cosas de la milicia. Esto que está dicho es muy gran verdad que pasa así en el mundo; mas nadie lo considera, nadie piensa en la muerte; solamente se considera lo presente, que es el ganar de comer y beber y buscar la vida, edificar casas y trabajar para vivir, y buscar mujeres para casarse; y las mujeres cásanse pasando del estado de la mocedad al estado de los casados.
