I’m listening to “Deor Hord” by @oewordhord.bsky.social and she mentioned this morning that some manuscript illustrators put horse heads on spiders for artistic expression. Gave me quite a chuckle.

Swagger with the swangor and the dolorous dagger that makes the tower keeper stagger to the belfry in anger to plant malodorous flowers that lay steeping for seasons under a sun of unreason and a cavernous clangor

Fulwiht-faeder, a baptism-father, is such a beautiful piece of Old English, and pairing it with the Psalter of Eleanor of Aquitaine is a perfect touch. Love these little word histories.
