Actually, the matter was not just a mere legend.

However, such stories of mass suicides in lemmings are mere legends.

However, this story may be a mere urban legend.

However, the above are all mere legends with no historical evidence whatsoever.

It would not do for them to see that he was frightened of mere legends and superstition.

Now that long-past glory was a mere racial legend to them.

No mere legend, mind you, but a very dreadful fact, which resulted in the abandonment of the house!

For these were no mere legend to her, the ancient parents of all blood drinkers.

Anyway I see no need to fear mere legends.

They do not depend upon mere legends and myths.
