lat 524 A.D. 1-4
Qui se volet esse potentem
Animos domet ille feroces
Nec victa libidine colla
Foedis submittat habenis.
ger Notker ca. 950-1022 A.D.
Qui se uolet esse potentem . ille domet feroces animos . nec colla uicta libidine summittat . foedis habenis.
Tér geuuáltig uuélle sîn . dér duuínge sîn géila mûot . nóh nelâze nîeht sînen háls úberuuúnden uuérden fóne gelúste . úndertânen sînemo scámelîchemo brîdele. Táz chît . ér nehénge sînen gelústen.
(fra Simon de Freine ca. 1189-1200) fra Jean de Meun ca. 1300
Qui voudra estre puissant, il li couvient donter ses couragez felons ne ne mete pas son col vaincu souz les ordes resnes de luxure.
eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.
Who-so wol be mighty, he mot daunten his cruel corage, ne putte nat his nekke, overcomen, under the foule reynes of lecherye.
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D. p.52, 1-4
He that Sekes mighty be,
Cruel myndz must tame,
Nor won with lust his neck
filthy raynes subdue.
