- Estrinez moy, je vous estrineray,
Ma seulle amour. - De quoy? - Du cuer que j'ay
Pour vous donner ce jour de l'an nouvel;
Prenés en gré! - Si fai je, amis tres bel,
Aussy le mien a tous jours vous donray.

- Tres grant mercy, pourtant vous serviray,
Sans departir. - Or bien. - Dont sans delay
A che bon jour de joye et de revel
  Estrinez [moy, je vous estrineray,
  Ma seulle amour. - De quoy? - Du cuer que j'ay
  Pour vous donner ce jour de l'an nouvel.]

Et allegiés mez maulx, ou je morray
Par desespoir. - Et quant? - Las, je ne scay.
Je sui feru ja mieulx que d'un coutel
De vos doulx yeulx. - Et vous fait donques tel
En verité? Je vous conforteray.

- Estrinez moy, [je vous estrineray,
Ma seulle amour. - De quoy? - Du cuer que j'ay
Pour vous donner ce jour de l'an nouvel;
Prenés en gré! - Si fai je, amis tres bel,
Aussy le mien a tous jours vous donray.]
