Christine de Pisan: Comme surpris

Comme surpris

Comme surpris
Et entrepris
De vostre amour,
Je me rens pris
En vo pourpris,
Dame d’onnour.

Si ne mespris
Quant j’entrepris
Si haulte honnour
Comme surpris.

Mais en despris
Ne m’ait le pris
De vo valour;
Car j’ay apris
Les biens compris
En vo doulçour

Comme surpris.

Christine de Pisan
(1364/1365 – 1430)
