Mais cest une bele maistrie
Nia estoile, si petite
Quen terrre nait sa vertu quite
En herbe ou en terrre ou en flor
Soit en faiture, ou en coulor
Ou en quel chose que ce soit
Nest riens en terre, questre i doit
Ne qui en li prengne naissance
Questoile ni ait sa poissance
Par nature soit male ou bonne
Itele comme diex li donne
Des planetes dou firmament
Ceste figure, nous aprent
