Le sublevé ne cognoistra son Sceptre,

Les enfans jeunes des plus grands honnira,

Oncques ne fut un plus ord cruel estre,

Pour leur Espouses a mort noir bannera.

The exalted shall not know his Scepter

He shall put to shame the young Children of the greatest,

Never was one more dirty and cruel,

He shall banish to Black death their Spouses.
