Breath-takingly beautiful and moving in their originals, they come across directly to the modern readers heart in Waddells equally lovely translations

A lovely digloss collection of poems, spanning several centuries. My favourite is the tenth century 'Alba' with its refrain in either Occitan or northern Italian. (
