I remember memorizing that small part of Beowulf for Miss Peterson (I believe). A small part of that still sticks with me. That's definitely one of my high school memories.

Remember Miss Spickard for speech? A year later I was just as scared/petrified in college speech. Now when I get in front of church choir they want to know when we can start singing (and will I please shut up!).

Dave:

Have you tried reading the Canterbury Tales in the original Middle English? That was a graduate class I took, and it was wonderful. We also read Beowulf in the orignal Olde English. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of call for people who speak Olde or Middle English, so I've lost the skill......smile.
