sonito 91
(para ed si Jose Jason L. Chancoco)

tigsit¹ mo pa sirin ira’y anlong
mangikinon ed saray uragon
alioan dia’d salitan Tagala
no ag ta dia’d taoir mon dila

tigsit mo’y un-uni na Iriga
tan say musing na susu’y Magayon²
aplos mo’y ampasiseng ya pagew
da’ra’y musia ed pinablin luyag

tigsit mo ‘ra’y agasang na bibil
da’ra’y kaparam ya umaanlong
penek mo pa ‘ra na rawit-dawit³
angga’d naliing so liknaan da

ipaneknek mo met ed sikara
bosis ka na anlong-Bicolandia

¹ sakey a porma na karaanan ya anlong ed Bicol
² say bulkan na Mayon
³ say anlong ed salitan Bicol


Keats's last sonnet, from the Guardian, February 7 1846
In the Union Magazine for February is given a facsimile of Keats's handwriting, in the last sonnet he ever wrote, and a letter from Mr Joseph Severn, an able artist, who went out to Italy with the drooping poet, and, as Shelley says, "almost risked his own life, and sacrificed every prospect, to unwearied attendance on his dying friend".
