Dream of the Rood (Complete Version)

2 years ago

A reading of the entire Dream of the Rood poem. It is an Anglo-Saxon poem from the perspective of the cross that the sage Jesus Christ was crucified on.

Note:
My pronunciation of long ǣ (ash) is of early West Saxon from Proto-Germanic *ǣ (Wright) and the 'f' in "of" reflective of earlier Proto-Germanic *b (Sievers).
