That which weapon nor flame could accomplish,
achieved by a sweet speaking tongue in council:
Sleeping, in a dream, the king will see,
the enemy not in war, or of military blood.
Ce que fer, flamme n'a sceu paracheuer,
La douce langue au conseil viendra faire:
Par repos, songe, le Roy fera resuer,
Plus l'ennemy en feu, sang militaire.
