Jacobo de Cessole wrote his sermon, Liber de moribus Hominum et officiis nobelium ac Pompularium super ludo scaccorum ('Chess Book on the Morals of Mankind and the Duties of the Noble and Lower Classes') probably in the last quarter of the 13th century; it proved so popular that it was still being copied in the 15th century, and the quotation is translated from a 1407 copy in the Bavarian State Library, Munich, given in R. Finkenzeller, W. Ziehir and E. M. Bührer, Chess: A Celebration of 2000 Years (London, 1980), 106.
