The book consists of three main parts that delve into the themes of sin, morality, and the transient nature of life. The primary focus centers on spiritual reflection and the pursuit of salvation, urging readers to reconcile with their sins and to prepare for the afterlife. The first part, "Le specule des pecheurs," advises on the importance of repentance and humility, illustrating the inevitability of death and the futility of earthly possessions. The second section, "L'exortation des mondains," contains exhortations that challenge both clergy and laity to live a life focused on spiritual wellbeing rather than earthly desires, emphasizing the virtues of humility and sober living. The final part, "L'exemple des dames," contrasts the ephemeral nature of beauty and status with the lasting peace attainable through righteous living. Through poetic verses and moral teachings, the book serves as both a mirror to examine one's life and a guide to attain everlasting joy in the afterlife.
