To those who asked: the "Modern Musicologist" contrafact was sent to me
by a friend who did not know who the author of the piece was--but she
said that someone she knew had seen it in the 1980s. I have no more
information than that. Sorry!

Les desleaulx ont la saison/Et des bons nessun ne tient compte,
Mais Bon Droit de trop se mesconte/De souffrir si grant desraison.
Je ne scais par quel achoison/Fortune ainsi hault les seurmonte...
[Traitors now have the season, and of good no one takes notice
But Right has greatly mis-counted in allowing such insanity.
I do not know the cause for Fortune to raise them so high...]
--Johannes Ockeghem, "Les Desleaulx" (15th century)
