Thielman Kerver: Housekeeper

Chambermaid Kerver

The housekeeper with French subtitles published by Thielman Kerver.

[La] recommanderresse

Femmes / filles / loue et desloue(1)
Et mort a me happer se ioue.

Women, girls, rent and check out,(1)
and Death is playing to catch me.

(1) In Middle French "lo[u]er" and "deslo[u]er" could also mean to praise and to criticize, but that doesn't seem to make sense here. There's a larger version here: Housekeeper.
