>Des qu'il vos plest, or escotez!
>Cuers et oroilled m'aportez
>Car parole est tote perdue
>S'ele n'est de cuer entandue.
Translation
>Since it pleases all, listen here!
>Friends, lend me your hearts and your ears,
>For the spoken word has no use
>If in the heart it does not roost.

I really liked this verse in Chrétien de Troyes "Yvain ou le Chevalier au Lion". It reminds me of Fontaines D.C. lyric
>When you speak, speak sincere,
>And believe me, friend, everyone will hear.
I like the beautiful simplicity of both statements.

Second line should be "oroilles" and not "oroilled".

People react strongly to sincerity, so you're wrong.
