EMBLEME XLII.
L’ignorant croid la Lune estre abolie,
Alors qu’elle est plus proche du Soleil.
Mais de lueur elle est plus anoblie,
Plus de son frere elle approche son oeil.
Ainsi celui, que le fol monde pense
Mort en la mort, vit estant approché
De Christ, duquel ayant la jouissance,
Il a le bien si long temps recerché.
