lat 524 A.D. I,1p
Nam nunc quidem ad communem sese hominum mensuram cohibebat, nunc uero pulsare caelum summi verticis cacumine videbatur; quae cum altius caput extulisset, ipsum etiam caelum penetrabat respicientiumque hominum frustrabatur intuitum.
ger Notker ca. 950-1022 A.D.
Nam nunc quidem cohibebat sese ad communem mensuram hominum. Uuánda éina uuîla . kezúhta si síh hára ze únsermo méze . uuánda si uuîlôn humana áhtôt. nunc uero uidebatur pulsare cȩlum . cacumine summi uerticis. Ándera uuîla tûohta si mír den hímel rûoren . mít óbenáhtigemo hóubete . uuánda si astronomiam uuéiz. Quae cum altius | extulisset caput, etiam ipsum cȩlum penetrabat. Sô si daz hóubet hóho ûf-erbúreta . sô úberslûog iz ten hímel . táz tûot sî diuina scrutando. Et frustrabatur intuitum respicientium. Únde sô tróug si déro sîa ána-uuártentôn óugen.
(fra Simon de Freine ca. 1189-1200) fra Jean de Meun ca. 1300
car elle s’apetiçoit aucune fois jusques a la commune mesure des hommes et aucune fois sembloit que elle hurtast le ciel par la longuesce de sa tres haute teste ; et quant elle levoit plus haut son chief, elle perçoit neis le ciel meismes et decevoit la veue des hommes regardans.
eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.
for som-tyme she constreinede and shronk hir-selven lyk to the comune mesure of men, and sum-tyme it semede that she touchede the hevene with the heighte of hir heved; and whan she heef hir heved hyer, she percede the selve hevene, so that the sighte of men looking was in ydel.
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D.
For sume while she skanted her to the comen stature of men, strait she semed with croune of hed the heauens to strike, and lifting vp the samehiar, the heauens them selues she enterd begiling the sight of lookars on.
