      A large dispute of luminaries
      happens at he land of the patron
      Saint, who, son of thunder
      In the wars always stormed [Santiago].
      Five luminaries, no less,
      Oppose one luminary alone:
      Five to one, being Galicians?
      I don't think so.
      And they are fighting on who
      enlightened more to whom.
      One to five? This certainly is
      Galician by nation
