Caedmon’s Hymn

Caedmon's Hymn 7th century AD translated by Paul Muldoon ' Now we must praise to the skies the Keeper of the heavenly kingdom, The might of the Measurer, all he has in mind, The work of the Father of Glory, of all manner of marvel, Our eternal Master, the main mover. It was he who first summoned up, on our behalf, Heaven as a roof, the holy Maker. Then this middle- earth, the Watcher over humankind, Our eternal Master, would later assign The precinct of men, the Lord Almighty. '
