Original text: LÉANDRE.
Chaque nuit, peu vêtu, mais de façon galante,
Et comptant sur son bras de fer,
Il traverait un bras de mer
Pour aller se jeter dans ceux de son amante.
Translation: LEANDER.
Each night, little dressed but in noble fashion,
An counting on his arms of iron
he crossed an arm of the sea
In order to go throw himself into thos of his lover.
