Hubo una vez un casal humano nacido en una tierra virgen. Como eran sanos, fuertes y animosos y se ahogaban en el ambiente de la aldea donde torpes capitanejos, astutos leguleyos, burócratas sebones disputaban preeminencias y mendrugos, largáronse y sumergiéronse en lo ignoto de la medrosa soledad pampeana. En un lugar que juzgaron propicio, acamparon. Era en la margen de de un arroyuelo, que ofrecía abrigo, agua y leña. Un guanaco, apresado con las boleadoras, aseguró por varios días el sustento. El hombre fué al monte, y sin más herramienta que su machete, tronchó, desgajó y labró varios árboles. Mientras éstos se oreaban a la intemperie, dióse a cortar paja brava en el estero inmediato. Luego, con el mismo machete, trazó cuatro líneas en la tierra, dibujando un cuadrilátero, en cada uno de cuyos ángulos cavó un hoyo profundo, y en cada uno clavó cuatro horcones. Otros dos hoyos sirvieron para plantar los sostenes de la cumbrera. Con los sauces que suministraron las "tijeras” y las ramas de "envira” que suplieron los clavos, quedó armado el rancho. Con ramas y barro, alzó el hombre animoso las paredes de adobe; y luego después hizo la techumbre con la “quincha” de paja, y quedó lista la morada, construcción mixta basada en la enseñanza de dos grandes arquitectos agrestes: el hornero y el boyero.

Y así nació el primer rancho, nido del gaucho.
