Du feu d’amour
Si vous voulez la grand challeur estaindre
Du feu d’Amour, ny mectez point de bois,
L’embrasement de luy est moult ŕ craindre,
Il brusle un corps jusques au bout des doigs:
Beaulté d’esprit, du corps, & de la voix,
Produit le feu de folles amourettes:
Veoir & parler, baiser souventesfois,
Sont de ce feu les chauldes alumettes.
