Creep by Radiohead, medieval and fantasy inspired
Verily, I am flabbergasted by the response these days of late. Over one hundred thousand souls? Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
I now present a morose tune that perhaps we all can relate to. Some of us float like a feather, but at some point or other, we all feel like the creep in the corner. Poor fellow.
The art is a combination of a manuscript margin ornament (I'm sorry, I can't recall where from), and the little weirdo is a detail from "The Rutland Psalter".

Lyrics:
When thou wert here before
I could not look thee in the eye
Thou art like an angel
Thy skin makes me cry
Thou float’st like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
Thou’rt so very special
But I am a creep
I am a weirdo
What in hell am I doing here?
I do not belong here
I care not if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want thee to notice
When I am gone
Thou’rt so very special
I wish I was special
But I am a creep
I am a weirdo
What in hell am I doing here?
I do not belong here
She runneth out the door
She runneth out
She run, run, run, run, run
Whatever makes thee happy
Whatever thou want’st
Thou’rt so very special
I wish I was special
But I am a creep
I am a weirdo
What in hell am I doing here?
I do not belong here
I do not belong here

My Master as well forbade such frivolities, especially for servants. When confronted and punished I slew my Master in a fit of rage. On the run, I soon joined a traveling group of gypsies on the carnival circuit. Having learned of my misdeed they respected me for opposing the tyranny of the lord of the manor. 'Tis no phase to be sure.

Thou is used in the same place as “I.” Thee is used where “me” would go. Thy is like my and thine is like mine. Thou is the informal way of saying you. If you say you then it is plural or formal. The way Hilda uses thou is grammatically correct, she is a good Elizabethan lass. A doctor would probably use “you” with a patient, but if you were to use thou the sentence would be “Thou shalt succumb to plague in 4 minutes, shall I summon the friar to perform thy last rites?” Thou is still used today in modern English in accents like in Yorkshire.

In Portugal and Galicia we had these medieval songs called “cantigas de amor” or love songs which were basically a bard writing love songs to a lady he fancied in the royal court and he could not identify the lady (mostly because she was probably married) but he would express his admiration and how he thought she was perfect and wished he was worthy of her love.

So, I know this is a joke, but I'm a massive language nerd and this is an excuse to ramble about something I find cool. The language here is 16th century English (aka Early Modern English) - the kind of English that Shakespeare spoke and wrote in. It's a little tricky for modern speakers of the language to read, but it is at least recognisably English. So, given how different Shakespearean English is from modern English, how different might the English spoken 400 years before that be from what we speak today? We don't have to guess; we still have some surviving texts from the period. The text below is the first 13 lines of of Layamon's Brut; a text from somewhere between 1190 and 1215 which is (assuming Wikipedia hasn't lied to me, because I can't read this shit either) a book on the history of Britain - the first such in English since the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle written some 300 years prior. An preost wes on leoden; Laȝamon wes ihoten. he wes Leouenaðes sone; liðe him beo Drihten. He wonede at Ernleȝe; at æðelen are chirechen. vppen Seuarne staþe; sel þar him þuhte. on-fest Radestone; þer he bock radde. Hit com him on mode; & on his mern þonke. þet he wolde of Engle; þa æðelæn tellen. wat heo ihoten weoren; & wonene heo comen. þa Englene londe; ærest ahten. æfter þan flode; þe from Drihtene com. þe al her a-quelde; quic þat he funde. buten Noe.& Sem; Iaphet & Cham. & heore four wiues; þe mid heom weren on archen. I'd be willing to bet that if you hadn't been told that the text was in English, you wouldn't have recognised it as English. English didn't use th for the two sounds we use it for today; it used 'ð' (called Eth) for 'th' as in "the" or "with", and 'þ' (called Thorn) for 'th' as in "theory" or "think". In addition, there was a pretty substantial vowel shift during those 400 years, leading to a number of vowels being pronounced differently but, due to the standardisation of spelling happening during the shift, only sometimes spelled differently. Also, English still had a proper case system around this time; most of which was gone by the time of Shakespeare and only a tiny amount of which remains today (mostly in the form of pronouns). So yeah; add about 400 years to the dates given here, and you'll be far closer to the mark. Hope somebody found this interesting.
