Seeing as we have a Thingama-whatsit page, what about a Middle English translation? Yt were a riȝt gode addicioun to ðe Þing, i wis.

Perhaps an Early Modern English translation, as well, would appeal to the William Shakespeare and Edmund Spenser fans.

Ooh, ooh! Yes, I'd love that, although I have only reading comprehension in Middle English, I can't really write it. Early Modern would be fun, too.
