(Les amans prins tenoit en telz esbatz)
Masle est Belyer, l’amant est prins au bas.
Laïs Corinthienne la plus fameuse pail
larde qui fut oncque, feit mettre tel
image sur sa tombe. Donnant à en-
tendre sa lubrique rapine par la Lyon-
ne. La follie des amoureux par ung mou-
ton, sotte beste, tondu, & escourché. Et
la paillardise, par la partie basse.
