    • 1859, Manuel Fernández Magariños, Vésperas da guerra de Italia:
      o Seor Pedro é compasible de todo xénero humano; Pro tamén de cando en veces cómpre remangar o sacho, e farfallar ó mal feito, que os vellos foron deixando, e o Seor Pedro destonces non se pon engoumiñado;
      Señor Pedro is compassionate of all of the humankind; but from time to time one ought to change the handle of the hoe and to complain about wrongdoings that the elders left be and, at that moments, Señor Pedro doesn't cringe
