A veces una esperanza loca le hacía creer que allá, en aquella plaza triste, estaba el hombre fuerte para respetarle, buena para amarle, un hombre que venía a buscarla, porque adivinaba los tesoros de ternura que guardaba en su alma; un hombre que iba a contarle, en voz baja y suave, los misterios inefables del amor. (Águeda, Pío Baroja 1872-1956)

En todas las civilizaciones, la acumulación de tesoros en tumbas y templos (en forma de objetos suntuarios o cotidianos convertidos en joyas, ornamentos sagrados, exvotos, etc.) era una práctica común,
tesoro = cantidad de dinero, valores u objetos preciosos, reunida y guardada; erario; persona o cosa muy estimada (Oroz)
