Question SA-15. Here is the text reference (p. 139/2 to 5):

The village barber, who wears straw hats,

dance slippers, jackets of piqué,

and is a passionate card player,

who hears mass on his knees and speaks well of Voltaire.

 

A tireless reader of El Liberal. He works

happily like a glass of muscatel wine,

stitching together, as he wipes the sharp razor

gossip, all the gossip of the mystical flock.

 

With the mayor, with the veterinarian,

good people who pray the rosary

and speak of the miracles of San Pedro Claver,

 

he talks in the canteen, argues in the cock-ring,

his scissors cutting from life's newspaper clippings

happy as a glass of muscatel wine.
