I am a beginner lever french learner. I have been trying to study a poem by Pierre de Ronsard, 'Quand vous serez bien vielle..'. I have understood the meaning of the rest of the poem but the second quatrain still puzzles me.
Lors, vous n’aurez servante oyant telle nouvelle,
Déjà sous le labeur à demi sommeillant,
Qui au bruit de mon nom ne s’aille réveillant,
Bénissant votre nom de louange immortelle.
I have looked up the meanings of all the individual words and have a rough understanding of the whole but without absolute certainty. I would appreciate if anyone could expound upon this quatrain.

On va venir prendre le deuxième baton jaune
On viendra l'appliquer à l'arrière
Je peux dire ( Ferme le robiner ! )?
Merci beaucoup

If the first part of the question is stated in second person plural, why is ‘ne te couche pas’ right and ‘ne vous couchez pas’ wrong?
The hint that is given first has cinque with lowercase, but when I used that I got it wrong.
