« Mais las ! Français, si d’audace entreprise,/De ça, de là, un chacun se divise,/Dieu n’aidera à la division,/Car il est Dieu de Paix & d’Union./Donques, François, qui sans fard ny malice,/D’un cœur entier faictes au Roy service,/Doncques heureux, heureux estimez vous,/D’estre sujects au grand Roy le plus doux/Qui pourroit estre , & qui porte en sa face/Des Charles grands la plus modeste audace ».
Un sonnet de Guy Le Fèvre de La Boderie clôt la plaquette sur le même registre : « L’Homme commande en terre & donne aux hommes loy,/La Palme sur le plant haut éleve sa teste,/Le lis dessus les fleurs, le Lion sur la beste,/Mais le franc Roy de France est des Monarches Roy ».
