Another one based on current reading:

Pedro da Maia
Married a social pariah.
His wife fled to another man’s bed,
So he shot himself in the head.

A little late in response here...

Actually it isn't bad. Reading The Maias by Eça de Queirós and it is a fun read. Also fills in a huge gap for me regarding 19th century Portuguese history. Reminds me (so far) of Galdos in style, although not quite in quality. Still, very entertaining.
