Verité
La verité doibt estre paincte nue,
D’aucun habit non couverte ne sceincte,
Affin qu’a tous elle soit mieulx congneue,
Et qu’on la voie à l’oeil sans quelque faincte:
Il est bien vray que cest vertu tressaincte
Et qu’il n’ya chose plus qu’elle forte.
Mais d’un cousteau (en ostant toute craincte)
Coupe la gorge à celluy qui la porte.[1]
