SPECULUM FIDELE
A faithful mirror
Sur un corps mort & puante charongne
Les aigles ont le sens de s’assembler
Pour vie avoir, & n’en ont point vergongne.
C’est beau miroir pour les coeurs enflamber
De tous Chrestiens, non pour leur ressembler:
Car au corps mort n’a rien pour le fidele,
Mais au corps vif qui les veut rassembler
Pour les nourrir ą la vie eternelle.
