SPA-RIMA ETERNA

Valle Inclán lo explicó en los versos modernistas de La marquesa Rosalinda. A diferencia de Francia, aquí no volaban libremente tras los boscajes, ni furtivos besos del Trianón, ni las ideas de Voltaire y Rousseau: con los ramajes de los boscajes, aquí hacía hogueras la Inquisición.
