Prière devant le repas

O Souverain Pasteur, et Maistre,
Regarde ce trouppeau petit,
Et de tes biens souffre le paistre,
Sans desordonné appetit,
Nourrissant petit à petit
A ce jour d'huy ta creature,
Par celluy qui pour nous vestit
Ung corps subject à nourriture.

bedezang voor het eten

O herder, hoog en zeer verheven,
aanschouw uw kudde, z’is zo klein
Wil met uw goede gaven stillen
hun honger, zonder overdaad;
verzadig beetje bij beetje
al uw schepselen op deze dag,
door hem die ons voorzag
van een lichaam ten spijs gegeven.
