Et qui rit des curés d'Oc?
De Meuse raines, houp! de cloques.
De quelles loques ce turque coin.
Et ne d'ânes ne rennes.
Écuries des curés d'Oc.

Man, I love these things.

What does it mean?
And what is it?

Pis-terre, pis-terre
Pomme qui n'y terre
Ah! de ouilles fenil coup ne qu'y perd
Il peut terrine et pomme qu'y n'échelle
Iéna équipe soeur verrou elle

I wasted many hours laughing at those with l_stboy a few months ago. Man. Genius.

(also, there's something about "d'Oc" that's way more satisfying to say than any similar English word.)

I first was shown them my senior year in high school. Needless to say, the more you've studied, the more flummoxed you are by trying to make sense of it all. I found a copy of the book , completely randomly, 3-4 years ago? And then just the other night I had to run to my shelf, because they suddently popped into my head.

Jacques s'apprête
Coulis de nos fêtes.
Et soif que dites nos lignes.
Et ne sauve bédouine tempo y aussi
Telle y que de plat terr, cligne

Also, I can't decide if there is more , uh, *value* in the writing of the verse or in the commentary thereon...
