Original Text:
LES FILETS DE VULCAIN.
Ce vilain serrurier sachant que son épouse
Parlait à Mars d'un peu trop près,
Forgea d'impitoyables rets,
Et les pinça tout deux jasant sur la pelouse.

(Un célibataire D.M.F.P.)

Translation:
THE NETS OF VULCAN.
This villain locksmith knowing that his wife
spoke to Mars a little too sweet and nice
Had this unmerciful net well drawn
and caught both babbling on the lawn.

(By a bachelor D.M.F.P)
