Marquise, si mon visage
A quelques traits un peu vieux
Souvenez-vous qu'à mon âge
Vous ne vaudrez guère mieux
Le temps aux plus belles choses
Se plaît à faire un affront
Et saura faner vos roses
Comme il a ridé mon front
Le même cours des planètes
Règle nos jours et nos nuits
On m'a vu ce que vous êtes
Vous serez ce que je suis
Peut-être que je serai vieille
Répond Marquise, cependant
J'ai vingt-six ans, mon vieux Corneille
Et je t'emmerde en attendant
