by Antoine de Chandieu (1534 - 1591)

Qu'est‑ce du cours et de l'arrest du monde?
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ITA
Qu'est du cours et de l'arrest du Monde?
C'est un chemin raboteux, ennuyeux;
Un cocher fol, déloyal, dangereux,
Traînant son coche en la boue profonde.

C'est un logis fumeux, sale, puant;
Un hôte avare, infâme, remuant;
Un lit pierreux; un fâcheux et vain songe;
Un réveiller d'orgueil et de mensonge.
