Amur n'est pruz se n'est egals.

Mes ki ne mustre s'enferté
A peine en peot aver santé:
Amur est plaie dedenz cors,
E si ne piert nïent defors.
Ceo est un mal que lunges tient,
Pur ceo que de nature vient.

Tutes les dames de une tere
Vendreit il meuz d'amer requere
Quë un fol de sun pan tolir;
Kar cil volt an eire ferir.

Si est del riche orguillus: Ja del povre n'avra merci Pur sa pleinte ne pur sun cri; Mes se cil s'en peüst vengier, Dunc le verreit l'um suzpleier. - Marie de France
