De la nanrre terre deurope
Et por quoi ele est ensi apelee

Lautre partie prist son non
Dun roi qui europes ot non
Por celui fu ele apelee
Europe, et est sa duree
D occident en septemtrion
Et marche a aise par enson
Lautre est aufrique qui sestent
De miedi dusquen orient
Aufrique denfer est nommee
Et vaut autant com aportee
Ensi en .ij. pars se devise
Dont ceste figure devise
