lat 524 A.D. II,5p
Ille genus humanum terrenis omnibus praestare voluit; vos dignitatem vestram infra infima quaeque detruditis.
ger Notker ca. 950-1022 A.D.
Ille uoluit genus humanum prestare terrenis omnibus . uos detruditis dignitatem uestram . infra infima quȩque. Ér uuólta ménniskôn sláhta . álles írdiskes tínges hêrostûn uuésen . ír tûont áber íuuera hêrscáft hínderorûn dien hínderostên díngen.
(fra Simon de Freine ca. 1189-1200) fra Jean de Meun ca. 1300
Il voult que li lignages humains vausist miex et fust plus noblez que nullez des chosez terriennes ; et vous boutéz vostre dignité au desouz de toutez chosez tres bassez.
eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.
For he wolde that mankinde were most worthy and noble of any othre erthely thinges; and ye threste adoun your dignitees benethe the lowest thinges.
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D.
He wold haue vs exceede all earthly thinges, but you throwe your worth among basest stuff.
