by Philippe Desportes (1545 - 1606)

Dames, qui par vos yeux amoureusement doux
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ENG
Dames, qui par vos yeux amoureusement doux
Rendez comme il vous plait une ame assujettie,
Sans perdre ainsi le tems chassez avecques nous
Et la chasse en commun vous sera departie.

Prestez nous seulement vos bois et vos forets,
Nous fournirons de chiens de courtaux et de rets,
Et bien que sur nous seuls la peine soit remise
Vous aurez le plaisir et le fruit de la prise.
