French text
Je prens congie1 de mes amours
Des quelles me fault partir hellas2
Nul ne me vient donner secours hellas
Dont dois plourer et bien gemir3
Nul ne me vient donner secours
Dont dois plourer et bien gemir
Si suis le mis en plus decent martire4
Je dis adieu a mes amours
Soudainement me voye morir.
