Rose, liz, printemps, verdure,
Fleur, baume et tres douce odour,

Et tous les biens de Nature,
Avez dont je vous aour.
Rose, liz, printemps, verdure,

Et quant toute creature
Seurmonte vostre valour,
Bien puis dire et par honnour:
Rose, liz, printemps, verdure,
Fleur, baume et tres douce oudour,
Bele, passés en douçour.
