Pour l'amour de ma doulce amye
Ce rondelet voudray chanter,
Et de bon cuer luy presenter
Affin qu'elle en soit plus jolye.

Car je l'ay sur toutes choysie
A mon plaisir sans mal penser:

Elle est belle, plaisant et lye,
Saige en maintieng et en parler:
Se la veul servir et amer
A mon povoir toute ma vie.

  Et de bon cuer luy presenter
  Affin qu'elle en soit plus jolye.]
