Origins of the Great Monarch
Par le rameau du vaillant personnage
De France infime: par le père infélice,
Honneurs, richesses, travail en son vieil âge,
Pour avoir cru le conseil d'homme nice.
By the branch of the valiant personage
From very small France: by the unsuccessful father,
Honors, riches, work in his old age
Because he took the advice of a nice man.
