"(à M. Dumont) Mon ami, c'est encor moi,
Je viens de verser en route;
Et tu voudrair bien, je croi
M'héberger, coute, qui coute!
(à Babet) Babet mets à terre deux matelats,
Sommier, lit de plume, oreiller et draps;
Mais quand je suis entre, ma chère,
Avec ces Messieurs ne partiès-vous pas?
Ne vous gènés pas (Bis)
(au Publio) Excusés Messieurs
(à Henriette) Ne vous gènés pas (Bis)"
