   • 1370, Ramón Lorenzo, editor, Crónica troiana, A Coruña: Fundación Barrié, page 308:

     Et seýosselle tãto sange que c[a]eu esmorido, et coydarõ todas suas cõpañas que era morto

     And he loss so much blood that he collapsed to the ground, faint, and all of his troopers thought that he was dead

This verb needs an inflection-table template.
