Par le Rameau du vaillant personage,

De France infirme, par le Pere infelice,

Honeurs, Richesses, travail en son viel Age,

Pour avoir creu le conseil d’homme nice.

Of weak France, by the unfortunate Father,

Honours, Riches, labour in his old age,

For having believed the councel of a nice man.
