This #MedievalMonday please enjoy this angry dragon (in honour of all the parents/carers who've been to see #HowToTrainYourDragon). This one looks especially unruly. You can explore the #KennicottBible in full on Digital Bodleian: digital.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/objects/8c264b…

Old English had a word for the opposite of a friendship: fēondsċipe, or ‘enemy-ship’. If the word survived, it would be ‘fiendship’, but since it went extinct, we have to translate it vaguely as ‘hostility’, ‘rivalry’, or ‘feud’.
