This variant, in turn, seems to be further transmitted by Richard Methley's translation from the Middle English into
Late Latin, dating to 1491: "si in vobis inuenissset tantum in vanum, quantum est minimus neuus in ornatu capitis mulieris, excepta necessitate, nunquam de vobis fecisset Matrem suam" [if he had found in you (even) so much in vain as the smallest speck on a woman's head covering, except out of necessity, he would never have made you his mother].
