Thanks, Helen, I have saved that link and will treasure it.

To those interested, here is the Anglo Saxon version of Caedmon's Hymn. I suspect some characters have been incorrectly translated though :-(

Nu scylun hergan hefaenricaes uard
metudæs maecti end his modgidanc

tha middungeard moncynnæs uard
eci dryctin æfter tiadæ
firum foldu frea allmectigprimo cantauit Cædmon istud carmen.
