Like Hans von Bühel's poem, the anonymous German verse version is part of the Version H tradition, and explicitly credits a Latin text as its source (Kunkel 2023). It was composed in the first half of the fifteenth century, and survives in four manuscripts. The poem is some 7,000 lines in length, with a sizable prologue that establishes the anti-feminist bent of the narrative, linking the Sieben weise Meister motifs of feminine wickedness to classical precedent.
