Elle leur dict, Si par desloyauté De ce corps mien vous avez jouissance, C est fait de moy. Si ie fay resistance, Vous me ferez mourir en deshonneur. Mais j aime mieux périr en innocence, Que d offenser par peché le Seigneur. ENGLISH translation Susanne, in a day of love, approached by Two old men lusting after her beauty, became sad and displeased in her heart seeing the interest in her chastity. She says : If, illegitimately, From my body you take pleasure, It would be my choice. If I resist, You would make me die in disgrace. But I prefer to perish innocent, Than to offend the Lord with a sin. this recording has been made on 2522013 in Beaufays
