The Prologue to the Canterbury Tales, first lines in the original middle english

Description

If you haven't heard Chaucer's Canterbury Tales in the original middle, I want to provide you with an audio treat! Although you can read a contemporary translation of the text, you don't even have to understand what Chaucer is saying to appreciate the rhythm, rhyme, pace, inflection - just the shear loveliness and mellifluous cadence of the text!

I hope you have enjoyed this tiny excerpt, and if you would like to hear more, or you would like for me to record all the tales (even the X-rated Miller's tale), then I would love to be hired to do so.
