Nothing — since men formed as I am do not see, enough they fancy, suspect, foreshadow, feel some instinct — some divining — some... I know not what to say; for there is no word that can give the meaning — feelings that resemble atoms that cannot be divided.

Nada; que hombres como yo
No ven, basta que imaginen,
Que sospechen, que prevengan,
Que rezelen, que adivénen,
Que... no sé como lo diga;
Que no hay voz, que signifique
Una cosa, que aun no sea
Un atomo indivisible.
