There are a handful of different Latin versions of the Seven Sages narrative that follow the pattern of stories are found in Version A. Some, like the fifteenth-century Trinity College Dublin text, replicate the pattern as established in the French Version A. Others, like the version titled either Allegatio Septem Sapientum, or Libellus muliebri nequitia plenus, follow the overall structure, but demonstate some specific alterations.
found in one fourteenth-century Latin manuscript and later translated into German, broadly follows the pattern established by the Version A tradition. The stories contained here match closely with other Version A texts, with the exception of the sixth story, Mercator, which has replaced Puteus. Additionally, usual order of Gaza and Senescalcus (usually 5 and 7, respectively) is here reversed.
Steinmetz's 1997 edition with the Latin text and the 15th century German translation in parallel offers a useful introduction to the way this text follows and - occasionally - diverges from similar and contemporary versions of the Seven Sages.
