VIGILATE
Keep watch
Voicy qui est troussee sur ses reins,
Voulant par là monstrer sa diligence.
Chandelles a brulantes en ses mains,
Les opposant à l’obscure ignorance.
Elle n’a point avec elle accointance.
Ains veut veiller en attendant son maistre.
Veillons aussi, & chassons nonchalance,
Le maistre vient, & ja se fait paroistre.
