Faeder ure, thu the eart on heofenum,
si thin nama gehalgod.
To-becume thin rice.
Geweorthe thin willa
on eorthan, swa swa on heofenum.
Urne daeghwamlican hlaf syle us to-daeg.
And forgyf us ure gyltas,
swa swa we forgifath urum gyltendum.
And ne gelaede thu us on costnunge,
ac alys us of yfle:
Sothlice.
- The Lord's Prayer as written in the southwest of England about the year 1000.

David, Where on earth did you find that? It's beautiful in its own way. Is gyltas an ancestor of guilt?
