From the Mireio of Mistral	A
	-
A hundred mares all white their manes	B
Like mace reed of the marshy plains	B
Thick tufted wavy free o' the shears	C
And when the fiery squadron rears	D
Bursting at speed each mane appears	D
Even as the white scarf of a fay	E
Floating upon their necks along the heavens away	E
	-
O race of humankind take shame	F
For never yet a hand could tame	F
Nor bitter spur that rips the flanks subdue	G
The mares of the Camargue I have known	H
By treason snared some captives shown	H
Expatriate from their native Rhone	H
Led off their saline pastures far from view	G
	-
And on a day with prompt rebound	I
They have flung their riders to the ground	I
And at a single gallop scouring free	J
Wide nostril'd to the wind twice ten	K
Of long marsh leagues devour'd and then	K
Back to the Vacares again	K
After ten years of slavery just to breathe salt sea	J
	-
For of this savage race unbent	I
The ocean is the element	I
Of old escaped from Neptune's car full sure	L
Still with the white foam fleck'd are they	E
And when the sea puffs black from grey	E
And ships part cables loudly neigh	G
The stallions of Camargue all joyful in the roar	M
	-
And keen as a whip they lash and crack	N
Their tails that drag the dust and back	N
Scratch up the earth and feel entering their flesh where he	J
The God drives deep his trident teeth	O
Who in one horror above beneath	O
Bids storm and watery deluge seethe	P
And shatters to their depths the abysses of the sea	J
