tetrastichon.

Decrepitam ducit Saturnus iure senectam,
Cui iam vita dolor, mors properata salus.
Spiritus ad superas exuto corpore sedes
Liberior factus iam remeare cupit.

Saturnus, by right, brings on decrepit age, to whom life is torture, and a quick death salvation. The breath desires, shuffling of the body and regaining its freedom, to return to its higher home.

quatrain.

Saturne fait le decrepite suyure,
Auquel la vie est facheuse et moleste:
L’esprit pour lors se fachant au corps vivre,
Veult retourner ą la gloire Celeste.
