First course was legs of a horse
And roast beef, what a relief
Also meat pie, I think I could die
There was also roast deer, washed down with a beer,
Wow! Loads of meat, what a treat
There were more courses than he had divorces
Six young rabbits were one of his habits
Pigeons, more than ten, half of them men
Chickens had been roasted, parsnips had been toasted
Loads more, so not a bore
There were wafers in a shape of a star, oh how lucky you are
A jelly that warms up your big fat belly
Part red, part white what a delight
Representing the crests of the main guests
Cream with Duc powder, the hall getting louder
Covered with fennel seeds, dogs eating leftovers, all different breeds
Preserved in sugar every time, felt like I'd solved a crime
Strawberries and sliced cheeses, hoping there are no diseases
Lastly plums stewed in rose water, yum, no one left a crumb!
This last course was of preserves and wine, grapes picked from a fresh vine.
There were pastries and fruit last, all this was eaten fast
All of that was one meal, all of that was a great deal!
Everyone left the feast, the amount of chatter increased
Then everyone would go, after the entertainment show
