Une Colombe perchée sur un tronc d’Arbre & sa Camarade morte à terre
Vitam meam, ejusque morten plango
Je plains sa mort, & ma vie
Piango la sua morte, e la mia vita
Llanteo su muerte y mi vida
Ik beklaag zyn dood, en myn leeven
I do bevvaile my life and his death
Ick beklag mien leben und ihren todt
