The Kernu translation is in a modern poetic form called, well I forget what it's
called, but has only nouns the poetic rhythm of which is found in the variation
of case within each line. What won't Bards think up next?

High things in song of bird
for coat of heron in dew a bathing
praises for night-sky in throat of lark
[this] hymn in ear of gods? 

Christophe didn't receive an English translation (or even an interlinear), so
