"Hwæt! þēos plumas     þe in icebox wære
 swylce þu     ge-saving hædfe
 for þem breoc-fastum     eaten hæbbe ic.
 Me forgif mine gyltas     for synnum minum
 Swæt wære swa swa ceoll     frofer mannum.
 
 Þæs ofereode,     þisses saw mæg."

[There should be acute accents over the aescas (ae-ligatures) in lines 2 and 5, but I wasn't able to reproduce them in a way my QotD-posting script could handle.]

Follow-up discussion included thoughts on a better replacement for "icebox" (Fleming: "tbh I had to make sure the non-OE folks knew was happening. If I had spent more than 10 mins before a meeting doing this, it would have been better for us/unintelligible to the world :D") and the comment from thisisjust2_say, "Dæt wæs gōd plumas."
