Original text and translations

French text Petite folle êtes vous pas contente de me baiser cinq cent fois tout de suite, approchez-moi cette bouche si gente, et ces beaux bras tant qu'avec vous je luitte. En bonne foi vous êtes la plus duitte à m'embrasser qu'ai trouvé en ma vie, mon petit coeur ne prenez point la fuite, encore un coup baisez moi je vous prie.

English translation My little fool, why are you not content To kiss me half-a-thousand times and more ? Your charming little mouth to me present And those fine arms, so that we two can soar. By faith, you are the most attractive pro To snuggle with that I have found in life. So sweetheart, don’t insist that you must go! Just one more kiss – it’s not like you’re my wife! Translation by Thomas Daughton
