   • 1616, M. Robert Anton, “The Philosophers fovrth Satyr of Mars”, in The Philosophers Satyrs, London: Printed by T[homas] C[reede] and B[ernard] A[lsop] for Roger Iackſon, page 36:

     Let Sacars, Culuerings, and Cannons ſound / In honour of their bones, and rock the ground / With all your deafning terrors: for behold / The Balſum for your wounds, are rich mens gold, / Powder the world with wonder, and thus crie, / The Camel now may paſſe the needles eie.

Possibly a borrowing from Gothic 𐍃𐌰𐌺𐌰𐌽 (sakan, “to dispute, rebuke”). Compare Galician, Spanish, and Portuguese sacar.

sacar (first-person singular indicative present saco, past participle sacáu)

1. to take out

From Old Galician-Portuguese sacar (13th century), and with cognates in other Iberian languages which points to an etymon *saccare, but further etymology is debated. Perhaps ultimately a borrowing from Germanic; specifically from Gothic 𐍃𐌰𐌺𐌰𐌽 (sakan, “to dispute, rebuke”).
