Original text and translations

French text Old French Amour au cueur me poingt quant bien aymé je suis, mais aymer je ne puis quant on ne m’aime point. Chascung soit adverty de faire comme moy car daymer sans party cest ung trop grant esmoy. Modern French Amour au cœur me pique quand bien aimé je suis, mais aimer ne puis quand on ne m'aime point. Chacun soit averti de faire comme moi, car aimer sans parti (:partenaire) c'est un trop grand émoi.

English translation Literal (almost) Cupid pricks me in the heart when I am beloved, but I can not love, when no one loves me first. Everyone be advised to behave like me, because loving without correspondence is too great a disturbance. Poetic rendition by Mick Swithinbank Love blossoms in my heart only if returned, but I'd rather not love at all than to see it spurned. Quench the flame before it is ignited! Better so to do than to suffer unrequited.
