00:00:02.920 --> 00:00:06.400 align:middle line:90%
This poem is the first page--

00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:09.490 align:middle line:84%
the first poem, the
[? luminaire. ?]

00:00:09.490 --> 00:00:13.210 align:middle line:84%
When you open a book, entitled,
"Tombeau de Du Bellay."

00:00:13.210 --> 00:00:16.600 align:middle line:84%
So I wrote a book about Joachim
Du Bellay, the French poet

00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:17.560 align:middle line:90%
of 16th century.

00:00:17.560 --> 00:00:18.850 align:middle line:90%
"Tombeau du Du Bellay."

00:00:18.850 --> 00:00:22.000 align:middle line:84%
And the book starts
with this poem.

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:27.730 align:middle line:84%
So the title is "Qui
Quoi," "Who What," and two

00:00:27.730 --> 00:00:30.960 align:middle line:84%
because--Comment dit-on tutoyer ?

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:32.490 align:middle line:90%
Says to the familiar form.

00:00:32.490 --> 00:00:34.300 align:middle line:90%
[INAUDIBLE]

00:00:35.348 --> 00:00:39.449 align:middle line:84%
Bon.
Parmi les personnages, les dédicataires

00:00:39.473 --> 00:00:43.544 align:middle line:84%
tutoyés, il y a aussi Joachim
Du Bellay, la poésie, tout.


00:00:43.870 --> 00:00:46.570 align:middle line:84%
So amongst the people referred
to in the familiar form,

00:00:46.570 --> 00:00:49.660 align:middle line:84%
thou is the poet
Joachim Du Bellay.

00:00:49.057 --> 00:00:50.827 align:middle line:90%
Qui, quoi ?

00:00:50.851 --> 00:00:53.930 align:middle line:90%
Il y a longtemps que tu n'existes pas.

00:00:53.954 --> 00:00:57.500 align:middle line:84%
Visage quelque fois célèbre
et suffisant.

00:00:57.524 --> 00:00:59.135 align:middle line:90%
Comment je t'aime ?

00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:00.970 align:middle line:90%
Je ne sais depuis longtemps.

00:01:00.994 --> 00:01:02.805 align:middle line:90%
Je t'aime avec indifférence.

00:01:02.829 --> 00:01:05.408 align:middle line:90%
Je t'aime à haine, par omission,

00:01:05.432 --> 00:01:09.444 align:middle line:84%
par murmure, par lâcheté,
avec obstination,

00:01:09.469 --> 00:01:11.447 align:middle line:90%
contre toute vraisemblance.

00:01:11.471 --> 00:01:14.908 align:middle line:84%
Je t'aime en te perdant,
pour perdre ce moi,

00:01:15.042 --> 00:01:18.721 align:middle line:84%
qui refuse d'être des nôtres,
entraînés de poupes,

00:01:18.745 --> 00:01:21.758 align:middle line:90%
ce balcon chantourné sur le sel.

00:01:21.782 --> 00:01:25.495 align:middle line:90%
Exquis de dos trainés entre deux eaux.

00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:26.996 align:middle line:90%
Maintenant, quoi ?

00:01:27.020 --> 00:01:31.467 align:middle line:84%
Bouche punie, bouche punie,
coeur arpentant l'orbite.

00:01:31.491 --> 00:01:35.795 align:middle line:84%
Une question à tout frayant
en vain le tiers.

00:01:38.020 --> 00:01:40.570 align:middle line:84%
For a long time, you
have not existed.

00:01:40.570 --> 00:01:43.930 align:middle line:84%
Face occasionally
celebrated and sufficient.

00:01:43.930 --> 00:01:47.680 align:middle line:84%
How I love you, I do not
know for a long time.

00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:50.260 align:middle line:84%
I have been loving
you indifferently.

00:01:50.260 --> 00:01:53.800 align:middle line:84%
I love you to hate, through
an omission, through a murmur,

00:01:53.800 --> 00:01:55.060 align:middle line:90%
through cowardice.

00:01:55.060 --> 00:01:56.350 align:middle line:90%
Obstinately.

00:01:56.350 --> 00:01:58.710 align:middle line:90%
Against all likelihood.

00:01:58.710 --> 00:02:01.620 align:middle line:84%
I love you and losing
you in order to lose.

00:02:01.620 --> 00:02:06.790 align:middle line:84%
This me who refuses to be one of
us carried away from the stern,

00:02:06.790 --> 00:02:09.509 align:middle line:84%
this jigsawed-balcony
over the salt.

00:02:09.509 --> 00:02:13.750 align:middle line:84%
Ex who, dragged by the back
between surface and depth.

00:02:13.750 --> 00:02:14.790 align:middle line:90%
Now what?

00:02:14.790 --> 00:02:19.260 align:middle line:84%
Punished mouth, punished mouth
heart surveying the orbit

00:02:19.260 --> 00:02:23.960 align:middle line:84%
a question for all wearing
the third sin in vain.

00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:26.000 align:middle line:90%
