by Clément Marot (1496 - 1544)

D'Alliance de Sœur
Language: French (Français) 
Par alliance ay acquis une Soeur,
Qui en beaulté, en grâce, et en doulceur
Entre ung milier ne trouve sa pareille:
Aussi mon cueur à l'aymer s'appareille,
Mais d'estre aymé ne se tient pas bien seur.
Las, elle m'a navré de grand vigueur,
Non d'ung cousteau, ne par haine, ou rigueur,
Mais d'ung baiser de sa bouche vermeille
Par alliance.
Cil qui la voit, jouyt d'ung treshault heur:
Plus heureux est, qui parle à sa haulteur,
Et plus heureux, à qui preste l'oreille:
Bien heureux donc debvroit estre à merveille
Qui en amours seroit son serviteur
Par alliance.

Confirmed with Les œuvres de Clément Marot, G. Roville, 1547, page 360.
