Hemezortzigarren mendeko bertsoak

Abstract

We publish several texts belonging to the 18th century. One of them was printed in 1747 in Salamanca, the other ones being unedited and proceding as far as we know from Obanos, a village in the High-Navarrese valley Izarbeibar/Naldizarbe. The dated text belongs to the dialect spoken in Gizpuzkoa, the other ones to that spoken in High-Navarre. We do not know the date, the author nor the place of their composition, but we suppose the parish church or some hermitage in that place was dedicated to S. Nicholas, because we find his hymn both in Basque and in Latin in the document.
