Original text and translations

French text Original text AvecqZ vous mon amour finira puis que mon cueur est en vous seulement plaise vous donc avoir contentement car le corps mort lesprit vous servira. Note: the Susato edition has "AvecZ" as first word. The highly stylized "Z" might be an abbreviation for the traditional ending "-ues". Modern French Avec vous mon amour finira Puisque mon cœur est en vous seulement. Plaise vous donc d'avoir contentement Car si le corps meurt, l'esprit vous servira. Sacred contrafact (from Le thresor de musique d'Orlande de Lassus) Aveques Dieu mon amour finira, Mon coeur aussi est en lui seulement: Plaise lui donc avoir contentement, Si le corps meurt, l'esprit lui servira.

English translation You will be my last love ever since my heart belongs only to you. So please, be satisfied with it for when my body dies, my soul will still belong to you.
