I just rescued them from the "Awaiting Moderation" bin. That page with the glossary is just awesome. You can't believe how minor of a Old English Major I am... but I had fun poking around in this poem over the weekend. Hey Peter, thanks for the great links.

Sometimes addressing the nations about God then switching without warning to prayer. I have a very literal translation of psalm 67 that I did this morning that illustrates some structural aspects of Biblical poetry that you might find interesting - see http://bmd.gx.ca/psalms/265.htm Definitely better – but I would leave the f out of left and add a b – you let him be [sin] there

If so, you didn't succeed. Perhaps you meant <a href="http://www8.georgetown.edu/departments/medieval/labyrinth/library/oe/texts/a2.5.html" rel="nofollow">this</a>, although it is gibberish to this mere private* in English. With some patience I might be able to do something with <a href="http://www.ucalgary.ca/UofC/eduweb/engl403/dream.htm" rel="nofollow">this version</a>, but what I really need is <a href="http://faculty.uca.edu/~jona/texts/rood.htm" rel="nofollow">this translation</a>. Lingamish, beware lest I turn back on you your arguments about not needing to learn Greek and Hebrew. * in British English "major" as a noun is only a military term.
