AUX RICHES, TOUT TEMPS EST BON.
Un homme Riche est assis au mylieu
D’un beau Palaix, & magnificque lieu.
Au tour de luy se tiennent de bien pres
Quatre eschansons, à le servir tous prestz.
L’un du Primtemps luy presente les fleurs.
Et le second tous fruyctz d’Esté bien meurs,
Dans un cornet d’abondance luy donne.
Le tiers le sert des raisins meurs d’Automne.
Finallement le quart, pour les hyvers
Porte fourrure, & vestementz d’ivers.
Un mendiant qui povres robe porte
Est demandant une aulmosne à la porte.
Signe evident qu’aux riches en repos,
Toutes saisons viennent bien à propos.
Mais au contraire aux povres malcontens,
Et malheureux, tout deffault en tout temps.
