The 'Nowell Codex' (including Marvels of the East; Beowulf; and Judith) is a segment in Cotton MS Vitellius A.XV. So far this is the oldest known copy of The Beowulf Epic. Written in Anglo-Saxon, which is a form of "Old (middle) English". I took a section of the original and created lines of text while being sensitive to the original. There is still some fading between the panels (they don't seamless repeat) so I advise you to check this before getting the fabric. Also, while I averaged the line to have them a relatively single line, this was not present in the object. As a result, lines of text do not line up perfectly. Again, I advise you to check this before getting the fabric. Thank you for your time!
