Original Text:
Buffet, pendant six mois, du ministère membre,
Contemplant ses attraits au bord du clair miroir,
Cherche à savoir d'où vient qu'on tient loin du pouvoir.
Le Narcisse du dix Décembre.

(Viennet, autre impromptu).

Translation:
Buffet, for six months has been a ministry member,
Contemplating his attributes at the edge of the clear mirror,
Searching to know from which comes far from power.
The Self-love of the 10th of December.

(Viennet, other impromptu).
