On voit mourir
Language:
French
On voit mourir toute chose animee,
Lors que du corps l'ame sutile part :
Je suis le corps, toy la meilleure part :
Ou es tu donq, ô ame bien aymee ?
Ne me laissez par si long tems pamee,
Pour me sauver apres viendrois trop tard.
Las, ne mets point ton corps en ce hazart :
Rens lui sa part et moitié estimee.
Mais fais, Ami, que ne soit dangereuse
Cette rencontre et revuë amoureuse,
L'acompagnant, non de severité,
Non de rigueur : mais de grace amiable,
Qui doucement me rende ta beauté,
Jadis cruelle, à present favorable.
