8« Tu me fes, dist il, grant ennui. »
9Li aignel[ez] ad respundu:
15Li aignelez dunc li respunt :
17De vus me vient ceo que ai beü. »
18« Quei! fet li lus, maudiz me tu? »
28E chose que tu ne deis fere. »
29Dunc prist li lus l'aignel petit,
33De ceus qu'il unt en lur justise;
35Treovent asez pur eus confundre:
38Si cum li lus fist a l'aignel.
