Adde quod felicissimi cuiusque delicatissimus sensus est et nisi ad nutum cuncta suppetant, omnis adversitatis insolens minimis quibusque prosternitur; adeo perexigua sunt quae fortunatissimis beatitudinis summam detrahunt.
ger Notker ca. 950-1022 A.D.
Adde quod felicissimi cuiusque sensus delicatissimus est . et nisi cuncta ad nutum suppetant . omnis aduersitatis insolens . minimis quibusque prosternitur. Lége dára-zûo . dáz súmelichêr álesâligêr . sô zúrdel íst . íz neuáre állez sô ér uuélle . uuánda er árbéite só úngeuuón íst . táz er síh sâr míssehábet . íoh lúzzeles tínges. Adeo perexigue sunt . que detrahunt fortunatissimis summam beatitudinis. Sô lúzzelíu díng penément ióh uuóla sâligên . dáz sie nîeht fóllûn sâlîg neuuérdent.
(fra Simon de Freine ca. 1189-1200) fra Jean de Meun ca. 1300
Et avec tout ce, pues tu ajuster que chascuns tres beneuréz a le sans tres delicieus et tres mol ; et se toutez chosez ne li vienent a sa volenté, pour ce qu’il n’est acoustuméz d’avoir nulle adversité, il est acrevantés pour chascunes tres petites mescheances, si que les chosez sont moult petites qui tolent a tres beneurés la somme de beneurté.
eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.
And adde this also, that every weleful man hath a ful delicat felinge; so that, but-yif alle thinges bifalle at his owne wil, for he is impacient, or is nat used to han non adversitee, anon he is throwen adoun for every litel thing. And ful litel thinges ben tho that withdrawen the somme or the perfeccioun of blisfulnesse fro hem that ben most fortunat.
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D.
Add to withall that ech man hath a most delicate sense of his own felicitie, and without all hap to his beck, throwen down he is, with any vnwontid adversitie, though in leste matters. Such tryfles they be that drawes from happyest men the top of bliss.
