lat 524 A.D. II,6c,8-13
Hic tamen sceptro populos regebat
Quos videt condens radios sub undas
Phoebus extremo veniens ab ortu,
Quos premunt septem gelidi triones,
Quos Notus sicco violentus aestu
Torret ardentes recoquens harenas.
ger Notker ca. 950-1022 A.D.
Hic tamen regebat sceptro populos . quos uidet phoebus . ueniens ab extremo ortu . condens radios sub undas.
Tér uuás keuuáltig . úber álle dîe líute . dîe diu súnna úberskînet . ôstenân chómentíu . únde uuéstert in sédel gândíu.
Quos permuns gelidi septentriones . quos uiolentus auster torret sicco ȩstu. recoquens ardantes harenas.
Únde úber álle nórdlíute . únde dîen der héizo súnt-uuínt . hízza tûot . térrendo daz crîezlánt.
(fra Simon de Freine ca. 1189-1200) fra Jean de Meun ca. 1300
Et toutevois gouvernoit il par sceptre emperial touz les peuplez que li souleuz venans voit en oriant et en occident et en midi et en septentrion.
eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.
And natheles , yit governede this Nero by ceptre alle the poeples that Phebus the sonne may seen, cominge from his outereste arysinge til he hyde his bemes under the wawes; that is to seyn, he governed alle the poeples by ceptre imperial that the sonne goth aboute, from est to west. And eek this Nero governed by ceptre alle the poeples that ben under the colde sterres that highten “septem triones” ; this is to seyn, he governede alle the poeples that ben under thepartyof the north. And eek Nero governed alle the poeples that the violent wind Nothus scorkleth , and baketh the brenning sandes by his drye hete; that is to seyn, alle the poeples in the south.
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D. p. 36, 8-13
the same yet with Sceptar peple ruled,
Euin suche as Son espies at furdest west
from the Orison Come,
Whom frosty seven stars Ouerlookes,
Whom wrothful North with drie heat
 Affraies in sithing of the burning sandz.
