Whan that aprill

Sometimes you just have tangle.... this is on Canson Illustration board. It's a soothing surface for the micron pens. This was very relaxing.

The Rune Project is my main focus. I have finished 6 more runes. I think I'll post them separately so I can use the posts as a means of organization.

The Canterbury Tales - Prologue in Middle English
by Geoffrey Chaucer

Whan that aprill with his shoures soote
The droghte of march hath perced to the roote,
And bathed every veyne in swich licour
Of which vertu engendred is the flour;
Whan zephirus eek with his sweete breeth
Inspired hath in every holt and heeth
Tendre croppes, and the yonge sonne
Hath in the ram his halve cours yronne,
And smale foweles maken melodye,
That slepen al the nyght with open ye
(so priketh hem nature in hir corages);
Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages,
And palmeres for to seken straunge strondes,
To ferne halwes, kowthe in sondry londes;
And specially from every shires ende
Of engelond to caunterbury they wende,
The hooly blisful martir for to seke,
That hem hath holpen whan that they were seeke.
