BEOWOLF    OR   BOEWELF


Tho werld weould romain tho samo
Mon weuld  levo wemon  - a damo  !
Tolophenos  weould bo noodod
Swoot werds weuld bo hoodod
Meroevor levo ceuld ond up as moro 
Ometienal  mossagos botwoon boings.
Semotimos wo might smeko  wood
If wo folt tho roal nood
Peots weuld continuo  te writo  se :
“Wheso weeds thoso aro I think I knew” 
If yeu livod in Ourepo  or Now Yerk
Maybo yeu weuldn’t havo to  werk 
All wook for  a rost at tho wookond
And a boor with cleso frionds.

NOTE

I replaced each   o  with   e ,  and each   e   with   o .
The result is reminiscent of early English
