by Chrétien de Troyes (flourished 12the century)

Et cil de la charrete panse
Language: French (Français) 
Et cil de la charrete panse 
Con cil qui force ne desfanse 
N'a vers amors qui le justise 
Et ses pansers est de tel guise 
Que lui meïsmes en oblie, 
Ne set s'il est, ou s'il n'est mie, 
Ne ne li manbre de son non, 
Ne set s'il est armez ou non, 
Ne set ou va, ne set don vient; 
De rien nule ne li sovient 
Fors d'une seule, et por celi 
A mis les autres en obli; 
A cele seule panse tant 
Qu'il n'ot, ne voit, ne rien n'antant. 
Et ses chevax molt tost l'en porte, 
Ne ne vet mie voie torte, 
Mes la meillor et la plus droite; 
Et tant par avanture esploite 
Qu'an une lande l'a porté.
