Cædmon quotes

Cædmon was an English poet regarded as the earliest known English Christian poet. His surviving work, "Cædmon's Hymn," is one of the oldest examples of Old English poetry. He is remembered for receiving the gift of song in a dream and for influencing the tradition of religious verse in England. Here are 3 of his quotes:

The fiend with all his comrades Fell then from heaven above, Through as long as three nights and days, The angels form heaven into hell; And them all the Lord transformed to devils, Because they his deed and word Would not revere.

Cædmon

Light was first Through the Lord's word Named day: Beauteous, bright creation!
