Le grand flambeau gouverneur de l'année

Joachim du Bellay 1525 (Liré) – 1560 (Paris)



Le grand flambeau gouverneur de l'année,
Par la vertu de l'enflammée corne
Du blanc thaureau, prez, montz, rivaiges orne
De mainte fleur du sang des princes née.

Puis de son char la rouë estant tournée
Vers le cartier prochain du Capricorne,
Froid est le vent, la saison nue et morne,
Et toute fleur devient seiche et fanée.

Ainsi, alors que sur moy tu etens,
Ô mon Soleil ! tes clercs rayons epars,
Sentir me fais un gracieux printens.

Mais tout soudain que de moy tu depars,
Je sens en moy venir de toutes pars
Plus d'un hyver, tout en un mesme tens.
