Too many Psalms!

Dear King Alfred,

Did you really have to translate so many Psalms? 

Sincerely,

Mike Drout

(Anglo-Saxon Aloud is now up to Psalm 110.  Not only are there still 40 to go, but 118 is an absolute monster.  My goal is still to have everything done by Christmas, but right now that's looking like a stretch if I also include those poems not included in the ASPR like "Instructions for Christians" and "The Grave" and if I go back and re-record the first 18 Psalms in spoken rather than sung form...)

Yikes. I'm having enough fun with the Dream of the Rood... you can have the Psalms, thankyouverymuch.

Now, you do remember that you're supposed to be singing through all of them every week, right?
