Du corps absent le coeur je te présente
Qui loyaument sans fin te servira,
Et en tous lieux comme ton serf ira,
Vivant d'espoir se nourissant d'atente.

Sacred contrafact (from Le thresor de musique d'Orlande de Lassus)
De corps absent le coeur je te presente,
Qui loiaument, ô Dieu, te servira,
Et sous tes loix comme ton serf ira,
Vivant de Foi, se nourrissant d'attente.
