"– The Bitter Root – There is a bitter root and a world of a thousand windows. Not even the smallest hand can break the water's door. Where are you going? Where to? Where? There is a sky of a thousand windows – a battle of livid bees – and there is a bitter root. Bitter. It hurts in the sole of the foot, the inside of the face, and it hurts in the fresh trunk of a newly cut night. Love! My enemy! Bite your bitter root!" With minimal deviations from the printed version. At the top, the dedication: "Para Julio Casal." The Uruguayan poet Julio José Casal, founder of the magazine Alfar, was friends with García Lorca; the two met, among other occasions, in the autumn of 1933 during García Lorca's stay in Argentina and Uruguay.
Autographs by García Lorca are exceedingly rare. „– La raiz amarga – Hay una raíz amarga y un mundo de mil ventanas. Ni la mano más pequeña quiebra la puerta del agua. ¿Dónde vas? ¿adónde? ¿dónde? Hay un cielo de mil ventanas – batalla de abejas lívidas – y hay una raíz amarga. Amarga. Duele en la planta del pie, el interior de la cara, y duele en el tronco fresco de noche recién cortada. ¡Amor! Enemigo mío ¡Muerde tu raíz amarga!“.
