Good version
This looks good to me. I'm not sure if the person that said it had a lot of spelling errors is serious or not... It's Old/Middle English. Those aren't spelling errors just original spelling conventions. I hope they were joking.
Well worth the read
This is Middle English, so those are not misspelled words but rather an earlier form of English. It’s a very edifying story and well worth reading.
Very good!
This is the first text like this I've ever read. It's surprisingly easy to read, especially if you whisper it out loud to yourself. The rhymes are well done, there is a pretty simple vocabulary, it has a good rhythm/energy to it, and it's even funny at times. Plus, it's not long at all, I read it in less than half a day.
It's wonderful it's free, too!
