The only extant textual witness of the Dutch Version A - as of yet - is a manuscript from the 2nd quarter of the 14th century which contains a verse adaptation of the French Prose Version A (see Schlusemann 2025: 5), but an earlier reference to the VII vroede te Rome attests a circulation of a Dutch Version already within the 13th century (see Schlusemann 2025: 2). Another indicator are linguistic features that argue for an origin within the 2nd half of the 13th century (see Schlusemann 2023a: 123).
