I listened to this old English hymn while strolling through English woodland on a sunny day with robins darting about. A good antidote to modern 'life'.
I showed this to my British Lit class yesterday as we were covering this piece. We are a small private school in Costa Rica and all of my students are second language English. I wish you had more videos as this one was fantastic!
Fyrdsman, I just happened upon you today, and I love your teaching style and your content! It is so refreshing also to see a young and cool man so enamored in such a worthy topic. You made me appreciate Caedmon's poem. Please do Cynewulf's The Christ! Keep up the good work!
I've just found your video when preparing for my university exams and i love your content!! I never write comments but I just had to, you have great style of teaching and narrating and you keep it really interesting, I will definitely watch all your videos! I'm glad there's something "fresh" in old english part of youtube :)
Exeter Riddle 31 which is most likely about bagpipes, seems to suggest they were passed around at feasts too. It seems that passing instruments around was an Anglo-Saxon tradition.
Very interesting that the focus of the object is that it calls us to our roots, especially when you look up the origin of the first bagpipes (with discretion)
Ƿes þu hal, min freond. I discovered your channel earlier today and have just finished watching your excellent selection of videos. I enjoyed both your style of presentation and the content, and sincerely hope you intend to produce content regularly. Subscribed. 'Til next time. Be well.
Absolutely love this....dreamed that l was an Anglo warrior who fought the Danes, turned out to be historical accurate enough to be a possible past life with plenty of details
A nice video, but the words leading with "sc" are pronounced as a /ʃ/ and not an /sk/. Just as British English still usee schedule (shedule). Keep up the good work.
If only we could arrange a pagan reservation before we are completely swept away by the constant waves of incoming cheap labour. Do you believe we have the will?
I too would love to see a regathering and believe wholeheartedly we will be gathered once again. Afterall, all of the other prophecies have come true, our people just don't realize it yet. The serpent does indeed spew out a "flood" before the children of God, we will be given the wings of a great eagle and we will escape into the wilderness once again, but only those who hold true to our oldest roots, which are not pagan. That is just as far back as they want you to go.
It may be based on the story of prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in which God sent Jibreel (peace be upon him) to the prophet, telling him to read (around 610 A.C). But the prophet said "I'm not a reader". He can't read. Then Jibreel said: 'Read in the name of thy Lord Who Created; created man from 'alaq (HOLY QURAN).

The Venerable Bede...
I visited Whitby, and saw Caedmon's gravestone, and that brought me here
What is theme of Caedmon hymn
What are your thoughts on Declaration 127? It’s hard to find your stance in any media of yours.
If only we could arrange a pagan reservation before we are completely swept away by the constant waves of incoming cheap labour.
Do you believe we have the will?
I'd love to see that kinsman.
I hope so.

I find it unlikely that Cædmon would suddenly be able to read and write having been illiterate. Good stuff though. Deor is my favourite though.
