La Fontaine - Sister Jane

La Fontaine - Sister Jane

WHEN Sister Jane, who had produced a child, br In prayer and penance all her hours beguiled br Her sister-nuns around the lattice pressed; br On which the abbess thus her flock addressed: br Live like our sister Jane, and bid adieu br To worldly cares:--have better things in view. br br YES, they replied, we sage like her shall be, br When we with love have equally been free.
