La devise de foy.
XCV.
Honneur de fin pourpre vestu,
Touchant en main à Verité,
Entre eux deux Amour de vertu,[1]
Qui a l’art de Venus quité.
L’histoire est de fidelité,
Estant par vray dire produite,
D’amour nourrie en purité,
Et sous crainte d’honneur conduite.

l’Honneur en est l’un, habillé de fin pourpre, lequel
joint sa dextre à la dextre de Verité: Verité, qui est
comme nue, sans aucun fard, ny embellissement
recer-
ché. Aux [=Au]
milieu d’eux est l’Amour chaste, ayant
une couronne de roses en sa teste, duquel nous avons
parlé en l’embleme 81, lequel est beaucoup plus beau
que l’amour lascif. Ces trois marques donc establis-
sent la Foy. La saincte Verité l’engendre, le
vray
Amour la nourrit, & la reverence de l’Honneur la
fomente.
