CPDL is a wiki site, which means anyone can edit it. So you add a text or translation simply by clicking the 'edit' tab at the top of the page, then typing (or pasting) the text and saving the page.
De tous biens plaine est ma maistresse
 
Chacun luy doibt tribut d'honneur
That's it!
Car assouvye est en valeur
 
Autant que jamais fut sans cesse.
===Advanced editing===
If you are more familiar with the wiki format, you can use a few extra tricks when adding a text or translation. This saves other editors a little work.
 
So, in addition to typing the text, you should also:
# Remove the line that reads '<nowiki>{{NoText}}</nowiki>'.
# Delete 2 lines (if necessary). These are obsolete lines from a long time ago. They do not even appear in wiki pages, due to the 'Commenting characters' <nowiki>'<!-- ' and ' -->'</nowiki>.
#* '<nowiki><!-- <b>Original text: </b> -->' becomes '<b>Original text: </b></nowiki>'
#* '<nowiki><!-- <b>Translation(s): </b> -->' becomes '<b>Translation(s): </b>'</nowiki>
# Add a language template at the top of the text that corresponds to the text or translation that you have added (i.e. <nowiki>{{Text|Latin}}, {{Translation|English}}, {{Translation|Dutch}},</nowiki> etc.)
 
You also may wish to check out some wiki formatting commands such
*<nowiki><br></nowiki> - line break
*<nowiki>''</nowiki> - italics (2 single quotes)
*<nowiki>:</nowiki> - indent
