The OED also cheats a little by using quotes from other languages like Latin, which does not seem completely cricket. Definition 1 of Peer in the 1989 Edition has the following starting quote from the Magna Carta:
1215 Magna Carta xxi. Comites & barones non amercientur nisi per pares suos.
Counts and barons shall not be fined except by their equals.
