History of Britain Part I
Part of a documentary from the BBC:
The Dark Ages on the History Channel
If you haven’t seen this program, I would recommend it when you have the chance. I think it first aired a couple of years ago. I’ve posted the first ten minutes below. You might can find the rest on YouTube, or look for it to come on the History Channel in the future. Netflix also had it on instant streaming for a while, but I think they’ve moved it off instant now.

Medieval Christmas Carol: Angelus ad Virginem
Angelus ad Virginem (alternately titled in English: “Gabriel, From Heaven’s King”)
Angelus ad Virginem was a popular medieval carol, whose text is a poetic version of the Hail Mary and the Annunciation to the Virgin Mary. Probably Franciscan in origin, it was brought to Britain by French friars in the 13th century. It is said to have originally consisted of 27 stanzas, with each following stanza beginning with the consecutive letter of the alphabet.
