Hwaet!

There be a new blogger yn Geoffery Chaucer's collaboracioun: Tremulus Æscgar, who would rather be yclept scop than poet.

Firstly, the author writes in a more archaic Middle English, which matches well with what I remember reading/struggling through when dealing with more northern authors.

Secondly, he also writes in Old English - but thoughtfully provides glosses in Middle English.

Thirdly, he writes love poetry, as shown by "Þin Leoð," which means "Þin Songe," or "Thine Song."
