   • 1611, Johannes Kepler, Strena seu De Niva Sexangula, p. 19:

     Hanc enim in nive formatricem facultatem si scivisset illa Aesopicae fabellae adultera, persuadere marito potuisset, se ex nive concepisse spurioque suo non tam facile fuisset orbata calliditate mariti.

     If indeed that adulteress of the Aesopian fable had known of this formative faculty in snow, she could have convinced her husband, that she had conceived from snow, and would not have been so easily deprived of her illegitimate child by her husband’s shrewdness.
