[Northkeep] Reading this is so weird

[Keith Duke]

Hmmmm... Had to stop and ponder about all that non-standardized medieval
spelling and how that complicates scholars struggling with translating from
one language in time/place "A" to a current time/place "B"... 

My simple mono-linguistic self giggles a bit and wishes them well...

can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not
raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.
