Bien en parrot luer ses soldeiers, 35 Eu ceste tere ad asez osteiet, Eu France ad Ais s'en deit ben repairer. Vos le siurez ä Ia feste sciot Michel, Si recevrez la lei de chrestiens. Serez ses hom par honur e par ben. 40 S'en volt ostages, e vos l'en enveiez U dis u vint pur lui afiancer, Enveiu[n]s i les filz de noz muillers, Par num d'ocire i enveierai le men. Asez est melz qu'il i perdent les chefs, 45 Que nus perduns l'onur ne la deintet, No nus seiuns cunduiz a mendeier. A01.
