tetrastichon.
Errantem sequitur titubans infantia Lunam,
Mobilis haec aetas mobile sydus amat:
Aetatum primam sub primo sydere ponunt,
Quòd simul immadeant humiditate pari.
Infancy, tottering, follows the wandering Moon: this mobile time loves a mobile star. They put the first time of life under the first star because both are moist with equal humidity.
quatrain.
La Lune suyt Enfance la debille,
Et de la suyvre à bon droit s’apareille:
Lage inconstant suyt la Lune mobille,
Symbolizant d’humidité pareille.
