Summary:
Les jeunes gens quand ils se marient ne savent pas ce qu’ils font. Ils croient que l’or tombe des arbres ! Ce ne sont que feuilles jaunies.
– « Je croyais qu’une fois mariée, je n’aurais rien à faire. Maintenant, il me faut travailler, endurer des coups, piler la lande de mes pieds nus ».
Quand deux jeunes gens se marient, ils commencent un jardin. On y trouve lavande, souci, jalousie, mélancolie. Mais la plante qui manque : l’herbe de patience.

Themes: Womens’ regrets ; Consequences of vices (drinks, tobacco, etc.)
