lat 524 A.D. III,4p
Ut enim paulo ante diximus, quod nihil habet proprii decoris, opinione utentium nunc splendorem accipit nunc amittit.
ger Notker ca. 950-1022 A.D.
43. ITEM.
Ut enim paulo ante diximus . quod nihil habet proprii decoris . opinione utentium . nunc splendorem accipit . nunc amittit. Álso ih târ-fóne gréhto chád . dignitas tíu nîeht éigenero zîerdo nehábet . tíu guuínnet sia . únde ferlíuset sia . sô dîe uuânent . téro si íst.
(fra Simon de Freine ca. 1189-1200) fra Jean de Meun ca. 1300
Car, si comme nous deismes un petit devant, chose qui n’a riens de propre biauté reçoit aucune foiz sa resplendisseur et son pris, aucune foiz la pert par l’opinion des usans.
eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.
And, as I have seyd a litel her-biforn, that thilke thing that hath no propre beautee of him-self receiveth som-tyme prys and shyninge, and som-tyme leseth it by the opinioun of usaunces.
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D. p.50-51, 39-41
For as a little afore I said, That it had nothing in it self of his own proper valure, that takes or loses luster by the vsers opinion.
