by Charles, Duc d'Orléans (1394 - 1465)

Dedens la maison de Douleur
Language: French (Français) 
Dedens la maison de Douleur,
Où estoit trespiteuse dance,
Soussy, Vieillesse et Desplaisance
Je vy dancer comme par cueur. 

Le tabourin nommé Mal Eur 
Ne jouoit point par ordonnance,
Dedens la maison de Douleur,
Où estoit trespiteuse dance.

Puis chantoient chançons de Pleur,
Sans musicque ne accordance;
D'ennuy, comme ravy en trance,
M'endormy lors, pour le meilleur,
Dedens la maison de Douleur.
