Forgotten Ground Regained
The Biblical, Alliterative
In the Middle Ages, the Bible was a favorite topic of alliterative verse. The links on his page demonstrate that it continues to be a fruitful theme for alliterative poets. Note: Most of the poems are by Katherine Ann Hill, posted to public Facebook goups. One paraphrase of Psalm 1 is by Carolyn Lozano. One paraphrase of Psalm 23 is by Aaron Wilkinson. The paraphrases of Psalms 2 and 6 and the morality play based on Acts, Fifty Days Further, are by Paul Deane. Paraphrases of Psalms 1, 2, 8, 18, 23, and 133 are by Mark C. Watson. One version of Psalm 1 and that for 1 Timothy 3:16 are by Donald T. Willliams.
