by Anthoyne (flourished 15th century)

Pour un chief d'oeuvre
Language: French (Français) 
Pour un chief d'oeuvre vous fist Dieux
Car vous estes belle à merveille
Et pour ce point ne m'esmerveille
Sy l'on vous sert en plusieurs lieux.
Il n'y a dame soulz les cieux
Qui de rien soit à vous pareille.

Pour un chief d'oeuvre vous fist Dieux
Je voy bien dont que c'est mon mieux
Qu'à vous servir. Je m'apareille
Car vous estes la non pareille
Que jamais homme verra d'ieux
Car vous estes la non pareille
Que jamais homme verra Dieux

Pour un chief d'oeuvre vous fist Dieux.
