c. 1700, Jerolim Kavańin, edited by Josip Aranza, Poviest vanđelska bogatoga a nesrećna Epuluna i ubogoga a čestita Lazara (Stari pisci hrvatski), Zagreb: JAZU, published 1913, XXIII, 46., page 507:Čini razlog, da ti 'e strašno
dano viedit jezerište,
i sve gore u ńem lasno
da ti 'e sbacat, ne bi nište
nigdar ńega napunio,
er bez dna se učinio.- It makes it terrible
to apprehend this great lake,
and all the burdens into it
if you were to throw, you'd
never fill it up,
for it appears to be without a bottom.
