Old Testament story furnishes material for Old English verse from the books of Genesis, Exodus, and Daniel; to Christian sources were due Cynewulf's Crist, and poems whose subjects were The Harrowing of Hell, Doom' s-day, The Dream of the Rood, The Departed SouPs Address to the Body ; the heroes of the Church give occasion for poems on The Fates of the Apostles, on St Juliana and St Guthlac, and for a Menelogium; the legend of the finding of the Cross is the subject of Cynewulf's Elene; poems o...n The Phenix, The Whale, and the Panther give a Christian application to mythi- cal natural history; and metrical renderings of Scripture are represented by a turning of the last hundred Psalms into Old English verse, and by a similar treatment of the Lord's Prayer.
Of a secular character, though not without allusions to Christianity, are poems on the various gifts, fates, and dis- positions of men; on the advice of a father to his son; and the verses in the Chronicle on Edmund, Edgar, Alfred, Ethel- red's son, and Edward the Confessor.
