Autour de moi, d'autres filles inspirent chez les hommes les prcipitations et l'hurlement du feu, le transparent doux du verre, la tendresse de l'herbe d'avril, la longvit du granit; Mais je je ne sais pas le projeter. Les jeunes hommes que j'ai rencontrs dans l'impasse du cupidon taient nous disent ? - soutenu hors du mariage. Ils ont bris mon coeur, ils ont calm ma chanson, et dit ils ont d courir le long, expliquant, ainsi la concession mes larmes, sont venus la premire fois leurs parents ou carrires. Mais jamais prouve me refusent la sagesse, le calme, et le sens ! Bien qu'elle soit une imbcile qui cherche capturer le vingt et unime ravissement fin et ngligent, je dois aller sur, jusqu'aux extrmits ma corde, qui de ma naissance a t maudite avec espoir. Un coeur dans la moiti est chaste, archaque; Mais la mine ressemble une chose de mosaque-Le devenue ridicule ! Pourquoi est-ce que je suis ainsi ? Pourquoi est-ce que je suis ainsi ?
