15th century, Hynek z Poděbrad, Neuberský sborník[1]:Tuť mě líbila ústky přepěknými,
rukama bílýma a přeušlechtilými
mnoho nastokrát mě obchycujíc,
praviec, že nad mě nemiluje nic.- Then she kissed me with her beautiful mouth
with her white and noble hands
hugging me many times
saying she didn't like anything more than me.
