Le bouis.
XXXIX.
Tousjours verd est le bouis,
& crespu par la cime,
La flute qu’on en fait rend son harmonieux:[1]

Aux delices propre est de ceux qu’amour anime
Il paslit, aussi font tous povres amoureux.[2]
Commentaires.
Le bouis est le symbole d’amour, pource qu’il est
verd mais d’une verdeur pasle. Aussi les amoureux
esperent tousjours, mais ceste
esperance n’est jamais
separee de doute & crainte. Le bouis est fort propre
à faire des flutes de toutes façons, l’harmonie des-
quelles fait quelquefois passer la fantasie aux amou-
reux.

Le Coing.
A la nouvelle espouse donnoit l’on
Jadis des coingz, par la loy de Solon.[1]
Bons sont au coeur: & rendent bonne aleine
Pour bien penser: sans parolle villaine.
Les Coingz confortent le coeur, & inspirent doulce alei-
ne à la bouche. Et d’iceulx les presens jadis faictz aulx nou
velles espouses, les admonnestoient de avoir le coeur net
en bonne, & honneste pensée: & la bouche de bonne odeur,
en pudicques, & honnestes parolles.
1. See Plutarch, Coniugalia praecepta, Moralia 138 D.
