Or che si oscura il ciel il canto strano udiam de' castrati: gnau, gnau, ecco il canto di maniera, cod, de, cod, de, ecco il cantare brillante, bau, bau, questo è il canto guerriero.
Péchés de vieillesse, Vol XIV: Altri Péchés de vieillesse

Sogna il guerrier le schiere, Le selve il cacciator; E sogna il pescator Le reti e l'amo. Sopito in dolce obblio, Sogno pur io così Colei, che tutto il dì sospiro e chiamo.

11. Brindisi  [sung text checked 1 time]
Del fanciullo il primo canto è la voce del dolore, cresce al mondo e cresce intanto all'affanno ed al sofrir. Si, di abando e dai pensieri del buon vino si tracanni, passerem felici gli anni in questa valle di miserie piena. D'una poco giovinezza poco dura il suo fiorire, tosto viene la vecchiezza vien la morte a far cùcù. Viva Antonio, il grande il forte, gran patricia del buon vino ei pur tracanni, passerem felici gli anni in questa valle di miserie piena.
