Un Serpent quittant sa peau entre deux pierres

Un Serpent quittant sa peau entre deux pierres
Vestutate relicta
Je serai plus beau quittant ma vieille bello
Cangiando la spoglia divengo più bello
Trocando el vestido devengo mas bello
Ik zal schooner zyn, laatende myn out vel
I shall be handsomer leaving my old skin
Ich vverde schöner sein, vvan ich mein alte haut abvverffe
