    • 1971, Antísthenes Pinto, Terra Firme:
      Então quando o céu empretecia tudo e a saparia espremia o coaxar misturado ao chôro dos alencornes, eu dava valor à secura da terra do Pé Nosso.
      So when the sky turned everything black and the shoemaker squeezed out the croaking mixed with the cry of the horned screamers, I appreciated the dryness of the land of Pé Nosso.
