1. The two families as the heights desire them,
And the two springs from the noblest rock,

2. How generous is the tie that bound them,
Its fabric knit without affectation.

3. Blessed it is, so I heard the wish's chant,
And the sweetest melody of angels.

4. On a night when its flowers spread their scent,
A scent enlivened by potpourri's aroma,

5. Generosity dispensed its perfumes within it
In a graceful gesture in brocade's design.

6. So its lights glittered and its flowers strewed about,
And its charm was a hidden subtle grace,

7. Signs of the Protectress of Sanctuary and her people
That graciousness in their eyes was a familiar thing.

8. Georgiette in the garden of damsels is a flower
Of the most beloved, gentlest flower specie,

9. Not to mention her art, wit without
Vanity, and charm without coquetry,

10. Nobility inclines in her character
Without piety she'd not be so gentle,

11. Between the bloom of her beauty and her shyness
Eyes stop at her, though she'd not stop them.

12. She was brought to Robert, the worthiest
Of suitors for her perfection to choose,

13. Manners, morals lofty and knowledge
No matter how much from its spring you take it never exhausts,

14. A conscience pure and a spirit free
That never pretended a trait nor classified itself,

15. How delightful for the two suited the passion gathered them
To stand from it in such a stand!

16. Matching in nature and disposition,
Loyal to guidance and virtuousness,

17. So may they be happy and may all wishes be attained
For them in every refined and noble meaning!
