Houer ne taupe de hile
Tôt-fait, j'appelle au boiteur
Chaque fêle dans un broc, est-ce crosne?
Un Gille qu'aime tant berline à fêtard.
***
In older French plays, Gille is the name of the country bumpkin character. This is a poem about each such Gille.
The old egg.
Time of the rodent.

Rahul, my apologies. You need to know extremely high-flown French legalese to understand this. This is exemplified by the young man I know who used to say the last line like this:
Un Gille qu'aime à fêtard nous ne.
Thampan, you again! You're a champ with the artist's impressions! But shouldn't that lower "J" in Scene 4 look something like this? *&*#
