La première vendait du laitet la seconde de beaux fruits,Mais leurs dix compagnes vendaientleurs corps de braise,

chaque nuit.La seconde vendait des fruitset la troisième des légumes,Mais leurs neuf compagnes,

la nuitvendaient leur âme dans la brume...Et la troisième des légumeset la quatrième du soleil,Mais les huit autres aux yeux pareilsvendaient des illusions posthumes.Et la quatrième du soleil,et la cinquième des conseils,et la sixième des secrets,et les sept autres des caresseset les six autres,

mes maîtressesdansent dans l'air sucré.Douze marchandes ne vendaientque les larmes qui t'intéressent.
