Rhymed Translations: the Restrung Bow a sampling of European lyric poetry mostly 1100-1900 in rhymed metrical translation

Guilhem, the first troubadour Five songs by Guilhem de Peitieu (1071-1126) the earliest known rhyming poet in a European language

Rhymed Rilke Twenty or so lyrics, mostly from the New Poems series 1907 and 1908, in rhymed metrical translation shown in tandem with the original German

Anti-metric Fables Twenty or so nature fables involving humans and animals: the god Apollo, the parrot, George Washington, and the Taoist sage Laotzu. Also some giants that Apollo hired to build the universe. The fables make literary use of natural law. Apologies for the fact that they don't rhyme but maybe that's OK in this case.
