S'il advient au combat, par un coup d'avanture 
Qu’un trait de tes beaux yeux outreperce mon cœur
Cruelle, octroye-moy au moins ceste faveur
Que mis sur ton giron entre tes bras je meurs.

Amy quand tu mourras par un coup d’avanture
Au milieu du combat d’un traict de mes deux yeux
Mon ame te suivant s’en-volleroit ez cieux
Ne pouvant icy bas sans toy faire demeure.
