Du vray rameau de fleur de Lis issu,

Mis & loge heritier d’Hetrurie,

Son sang antique de longue main tissu,

Fera Florence florir en l’Armoirie.

Issued out of the true branch of the City,

He shall be set for Heir of Hetruria,

His ancient blood waved by a long while,

Shall cause Florence to flourish in the Scutcheon.
