Charmant Amour sous ta puissance Tôt ou tard on sent tes faveurs, Souvent dans les plus grands malheurs Elles passent notre espérance. Charmant Amour sous ta puissance, &c. Tu ne fais sentir tes rigueurs Que pour éprouver la constance, Tu veux que la persévérance Puisse mériter tes douceurs. Charmant Amour sous ta puissance, &c.
