lat 524 A.D. I,5c,25-27
Omnia certo fine gubernans
Hominum solos respuis actus
Merito rector cohibere modo.
ger Notker ca. 950-1022 A.D.
Omnia rector gubernans certo fine . respuis solos actus hominum . cohibere merito modo.
Állíu díng kót in geduánge hábende . neuuíle du ménniskôn tâte . tuíngen ze íro réhte. Uuâr uuâre dánne liberum arbitum . úbe ér sie tuûnge?
(fra Simon de Freine ca. 1189-1200) fra Jean de Meun ca. 1300
1 >Vus ki guvernez si bien
Le ciel l’amunt e tute rien,
Mesestance adrescez une;

Tu gouverneur, gouvernanz toutez chosez par certain terme, refusez seulement a gouverner et a refrener par maniere bonne et digne les fez des hommes.
1. for Simon, see above, lines 18-22.
eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.
O thou governour, governinge alle thinges by certein ende, why refusestow only to governe the werkes of men by dewe manere ?
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D.
Al giding with assured end,
Mans workes alone thou dost dispice
O gidar by right desart from meane to kipe.
