    For pilgrims, this corner is a small oasis where they can stop to rest and cool off.

    The Fountain of San Jorge de Aguasantas, also known as Fonte de San Xurxo de Augas Santas, is located in the parish of San Xurxo de Augas Santas, in the municipality of Palas de Rei, province of Lugo. It is a very special place on the Primitive Way, frequented by pilgrims who pause to rest and refresh themselves.

    At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source
    (whereby it corresponds to the art of poetry / if this 'source' is a 'well'):
    To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience - especially in German-speaking countries - for his word joke and "Noch'n poem" with a short quatrain:
    "There is certainly much beauty in
    on the element, the wet.
    Because you can drink the water.
    But you can - also leave it."
    (H.Erhardt)
