The feet. Manuel de Galhegos, who became a priest after becoming a widow, was one of Camões' critics, which is why he was not a highly esteemed author in his time. This poem of his, written in octaves and divided into five books, is classified by José dos Santos as VERY RARE and exquisitely printed.
