Ye Auld Anglishe

I have tried to read the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer before, but that was years ago. I am learning again, what I learned then, that the best way to approach the material is with a running start, and to not allow yourself to slow down. The way it is written is very phonetic, and if you ignore the words on the page and just listen to the sound of your voice, you can make much better sense of everything.

Then again, this is a personal observation, so I may just be crazy.
