Herculano
Justiniano, Ponciano, Luciano,
are three names of foul end;
however, decent people,
fear more being called Herculano.
Being a Proculus is already a shame.
Because he doesn't leave the sour circle,
who leaves happy is expedo,
but he stinks of demons and is rare.
However, to make it nice,
an idiot named himself Expedito.
What a delight, sir, what a creature,
even in that you can see his finesse!
That's why the good Herculano,
went to court to change his name,
and argued with the judge the guy
the embarrassments of being a man.
-I give my name and I give Herculano;
the answer is not appropriate, sir.
And that judge, playful and villain,
right away says: lend me!
And does the gentleman already have in mind
what name they will call him?
-Will you believe me if I tell you no?;
I haven't thought about that point.
I would like to have in my name
the depth of a wise man of the world...
I already have it, sir, don't be surprised:
I want to be called Mr. Profundo!
And in an act he has at hand
that name is erased: Herculano.
Now in a brief second is born,
who answers to this name: Profundo.
Now Profundo is filled with joy:
-To serve you: Profundo Cedillo.
And the villainous judge replies:
-At your service, Mr. Profundillo,
and if you can also lend it to me.
