Sloth: You slumbrous slug who yonder snores / Your lazy ways the Lord deplores!
La Paresse: Limaçon qui t'endors / Ta paresse je déplore !
"La Paresse" (Sloth) introduces the theme for each of the sins that follow in Variations 2–7. The melody is given to the bassoon, which plods sluggishly along over a light piano accompaniment.
