French text
Sé j`ay parlé des dames de religion
de la basse condition
Je l`ay fait par ébattement
Sans y penser soudainement
Car je sais bien que loyaulement
le font par bonne affection
et pour toute conclusion
je m`en repens précisément
English translation
If I have ever spoken of ladies of religion
who are poor
I did so in playful mood
without thinking, just like that
because I know they do so out of true love
and to conclude
I am truly sorry.
