Original text and translations

French text Je suis aymé de la plus belle, Qui soit vivant dessoubz les Cieulx, Encontre tous faulx Envieulx Je la soustiendray estre telle. Modern French Je suis aimé par la plus belle qui soit vivante sous les cieux, à l'encontre de tous faux ennuyeux, je la soutiendrai à rester telle.

English translation Loved am I by the fairest girl Who ever walked beneath the Skies, Malicious tongues may spin their lies I’ll guard her as I would a pearl. Translation by Thomas Daughton
