Abstract
en la esteril regi6n de nuestros afios (Villamediana) to N the notes that follow, the sonnet Mire los mu, ros de la patria mia is studied in the context of Quevedo's moral thought, and in the light of some of its English translations. I hope to show that I several of its images are more ambiguous and far richer than has previously been supposed. It ?' has often been observed that this sonnet focuses the reader's attention first on large, distant entities (muros, patria) and then on small, immediate ones (casa, espada). In analyzing the poem, I shall do the opposite. Let us begin by elucidating the meaning of a single image in the earliest known version of the poem.
