Pluseurs gens

Language: French (Français)

Pluseurs gens voy qui leur pensee
Mettent en vestir bons habis :
L'un vest une cote brodee,
L'autre un villan foure de gris ;
Manteaux portent grant ou petis :
Mais toute leur devise faite,
Je me tieng a une Jaquete.

Many people

Language: English after the French (Français)

Many people I see who give their thoughts
To wearing fine clothes:
One wears an embroidered coat,
Another a robe edged with ermine;
They wear cloaks, big and small;
But each makes their own choice,
I keep to my Jacquet.
