A History of English and the HumoursSpecial Thanks to Mr. Unterborn for this resource!
Middle English
I wouldn’t expect you to get this, but you really
should readThe Canterbury Tales!
The Canterbury Tales (c. 1390) “The General Prologue”
Whan that Aprill, with his shoures sooteThe droghte of March hath perced to the rooteAnd bathed every veyne in swich licour,Of which vertu engendred is the flour;Whan Zephirus eek with his sweete breethInspired hath in every holt and heethThe tendre croppes, and the yonge sonneHath in the Ram his halfe cours yronne,And smale foweles maken melodye,(That slepen al the nyght with open eye)So priketh hem Nature in hir coragesThanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimagesAnd palmeres for to seken straunge strondesTo ferne halwes, kowthe in sondry londes;And specially from every shires endeOf Engelond, to Caunterbury they wende,The hooly blisful martir for to sekeThat hem hath holpen, whan that they were seeke.

• Brought to Britain by invaders from Northwest Germany and Holland
• Viking invaders, 8th & 9th Centuries• Norman Conquest, 11th Century
Old English
• Dialects spoken by Anglo-Saxons became Old English
• Spoken until 12 & 13th Centuries
