"...In truth, now I realize that all the pleasures of this life pass like shadows and dreams, or wither like the flowers in the field. O unfortunate Montesinos! O gravely wounded Durandarte! O luckless Belerma! O weeping Guadiana, and you unhappy daughters of Ruidera, who show in your waters the numbers of tears shed by your beautiful eyes!"
[Chasm story in The Savage Detectives in which Ulises Lima fell inside the cave]
