Lyrics: Anon

Marie montrait à sa dame
Un dizain qu'un autre avait fait.
"J'ai fait celà par sus mon âme";
Ce dit elle, mais en effet
La mine qu'elle contrefait
Montre bien que pas fait ne là.
À donc la maîtresse parla
À Marie et lui dit ainsi:
"Je crois bien qu'avez fait celà,
Mais vous n'avez pas fait ceci".

Marie shewed her mistress a sonnet
Which had been written by someone else.
I composed this, upon my soul",
She said, but actually,
her expression said otherwise.
So her mistress spoke to Marie
And said this:
"I know you've fabricated that,
But you haven't fabricated this".
