Tracks:

De toutes flours
Se ma dame m'a guerpi
Bone pastor Guillerme / Bone pastor, qui pastores / Bone pastor
Merci vous pri
Se d'amer me repentoie
Je sui aussi com cils
Se je souspir parfondement
Certes, mon oueil
Quant je sui mis au retour
De tout sui si confortee
Qui es promesses de Fortune / Ha! Fortune, trop sui mis loing / Et non est qui adjuvat
Loyauté vueil tous jours
De triste cuer / Quant vrais amans / Certes, je di
Fons totius Superbie / O Livoris feritas / Fera pessima
