Etymology
1. c.1340 (implied in
versifier), from O.Fr.
versifier "turn into verse" (13c.), from L.
versificare "compare verse," from
versus "verse" (see verse) + root of
facere "to make" (see factitious).
2. From Middle English versifien, from Old French versifier, learned borrowing from Latin versificāre (“versify”), from versus (see verse) + faciō (“make”). See: Middle English '
versifien', Old French '
versifier', Latin '
versificō'.
