Arreste, atten, ô mondain

Language: French

 Arreste, atten, ô Mondain, où cours-tu?
 Escoute, enten la voix de la Vertu.
 Las! il passe outre: il cours après le Monde,
 Il va courant, fuyant, ainsi que l'onde
 
 D'un gros torrent, que l'orage des cieux,
 Fondu en bas, a rendu orgueiieux.
 Ma remontrance est un roc qu'il rencontre,
 Passant dessus, murmurant à l'encontre.


Input by Ferdinando Albeggiani
