Perpolit Incultum paulatim tempus amorem. [6]
Perpolit Incultum paulatim tempus amorem.
Vrsa novum fertur lambendo fingere fœtum,
Paulatim et formam quæ decet ore dare:
Sic Dominam ut valde sit cruda sit aspera Amator,
Blanditijs sensim mollit et obsequio.

Col Tempo.
Leccando forma il proprio parto, l'Orso,
Che da principio brutta massa appare,
Per ben far, ben seruir, e ben parlare,
Si forma, e cresce Amor con equal corso.

Peu a Peu.
Comme L'Ourse en l'echant façonne son ourseau,
Ainsy l'amant flatteur, par de tendres caresses,
Sait uaincre auec le temps les plus fieres maitresses,
Et conduit peu a peu leur rigueur au tombeau.

Allengskens.
Gelyk als een Beerin haar jong dat ze op kweekt likt,
En zo haar wezen geeft: zo werd door 's Minnaars Vryen
Het hert der Minnares geheel na 't zyn geschikt;
Zy steld haar strengheid, door zyn klagten, gants ter zyen
En zo haar wezen geeft: zo werd door 's Minnaars Vryen
