Original text and translations

French text Jayme par amours la belle au cler visage, Elle est belle et saige, faicte de cor saige, et plaisante a tous mais ung faulx langaige, luy porte grand domaige.

English translation I prefer a lover with a lightsome guise, For she is fair and wise, And quite the shapely prize, A joy to all, but suffer any lies, And her reputation dies. Translation by Thomas Daughton
