    • betw. 1246 and 1252, Gonzalo de Berceo, Los Milagros de nuestra Señora , (ed. by Claudio García Turza, 1992, Madrid: Espasa-Calpe):
      Era un simple clérigo, pobre de clerecía,
      dicié cutiano missa de la Sancta María;
      non sabié decir otra, diciéla cada día,
      más la sabié por uso que por sabiduría.
      Fo est missacantano al bispo acusado
      que era idïota, mal clérigo provado;
      el "Salve Sancta Parens" sólo tenié usado,
      non sabié otra missa el torpe embargado.
      He was a simple cleric, poor in clerecy,
      He would say the mass of Holy Mary every day;
      He did not know any other, he said each day,
      He knew it more out of habit than knowledge.
      This mass-singer was accused before the bishop
      with the charge of being an idiot, a proven bad cleric;
      he was simply used to the Behold, Holy Mother
      the fool in hardship did not know any other mass.
