De liefde Godts is eenen schat
Oneyndelijck, niet om waerderen,
De ghene die dien vint en vat
En kan gheen grooter goet begheren:
Gheen s’weerelts rijckdom, goet, en lust
En machmen teghen dien niet achten,
Hy leeft in armoed’, en onrust,
Die na Godts liefde niet wilt trachten.

Voici le tresor (Ame chiche)
Que chacun doibt chez soy garder:
Car celuy seul est vrayement riche
Qui peut ainsi le posseder.
l’Or est richesse d’apparence,
l’Amour l’est à la verité:
Et en luy seul est l’abondance,
Et sans luy tout est pauureté.
