La puissance d’Amour.
APODEIXE.
Voyez amour riant doulx, & humain,
Tout nud, sans feu, sans arc.[1] Mais d’une main
Des fleurs tenir, d’aultre ung poisson avoir
Monstrant qu’il ha sur terre, & mer povoir.
Tous animaulx vivans en la terre portant fleurs,
& en la mer portant poissons, sont naturellement
subjectz à amour de son per: tant pour volupté,
que pour generation. Parquoy Amour regne par
tout.

Vis Amoris.
Love’s might
LXXIII.
Aligerum fulmen fregit Deus aliger, igne
Dum demonstrat uti est fortior ignis Amor.[1]

Force d’Amour.
LXXIII.
Le feu d’Amour vainct la tempeste,
Il n’est feu qui tant d’ardeur face.
Car quand quelqu’ng l’a en la teste,
Il ard au cueur, et en la face.
Jupiter, qui la fouldre brasse,
N’en fait point de telle vigueur:
Voire, si luy mesmes l’embrasse,
Il s’en brusle, & souffre langueur.
1. This is a translation of Anthologia graeca 16.250.
