Un Rosier Fleuri, que de vilaines Mouches mangent
Turpibus exitium
La bonne odeur fait mourir les animaux puans
Il bono odore uccide gli animali puzzolenti
El buon olor mata al los animales hediondos
De goede reuk dood de stinkende diertjes
Good smell kills the ugly beasts
Der gute geruch tödtet die stinckende thiere
