Doulz amis, oy mon compleint:
a toy se pleint et compleint,
par deffaut de tes secours
en mes langours car d'aillours
n'est riens qui confort m'amaint
mes cuers q'a mours si contreint
que tiens remeint dont mal meint,
ay, quant tu ne me secours,
S'en croist me plours tous les jours
quant tes cuers en moy ne maint
