Publisher's Synopsis

Old English Idyls is a collection of poems written by John Lesslie Hall and published in 1899. The poems are written in Old English, a language spoken in England from the 5th century until the 12th century. The collection includes 13 idyllic poems that describe pastoral scenes and everyday life in Old England. The poems celebrate the beauty of nature, the joys of love, and the simplicity of rural life. The language used in the poems is archaic and may be difficult for modern readers to understand, but the collection is a valuable contribution to the study of Old English literature. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
