Question
A passage of this book labeled “B” and a poetic translation labeled “A” are merged in the Junius Manuscript. The Heliand and a translation of this book are the two major extant works of Old Saxon poetry. In a poem based on this book, a character claims to have “a mind not to be changed by place or time” since “the mind is its own place.” A story from this book is told in a poem that claims that “four thousand winter / thought he not too long” about a man who “lay (*) ybounden (“ee-BOUND-en”) / bounden in a bond.” A couplet by John Ball asks of two people from this book: when one “delved” and the other “span,” “who was then the gentleman?” This book inspired a poem whose villain claims to be “with adverse power opposed in dubious battle,” which aims to “assert Eternal Providence / and justify the ways of God to men.” For 10 points, John Milton’s Paradise Lost was based on what book of the Bible? ■END■
