		The Ormulum consists of 20,000 lines of metrical verse, explicating Christian teaching on each of the texts used in the mass throughout the church calendar.
		The Ormulum is also the only specimen of the homiletic tradition in England between Ãlfric and the 14th century, as well as the last example of the Old English verse homily.
		The Ormulum is, with the Ancrene Wisse and the Ayenbite of Inwyt, one of the three crucial texts that have allowed philologists to document the transformation of Old English into Middle English.

		The Ormulum is a work of metrical Biblical exegesis written in early Middle English by a man named "Ormin".
		The chief value of the Ormulum for scholars is the fact that it is metrical and that Orm used an idiosyncratic orthographical system.

	Orm
		The Ormulum certainly contains a surprisingly large number of words that are otherwise nearly peculiar to western texts; but the inference that might be drawn from this fact appears to be untenable in face of the remarkable lexical affinities between this work and Havelok, which is certainly of northeast midland origin.
		The Ormulum is written in lines alternately of eight and seven syllables, without either rhyme or alliteration.
		The Ormulum is entirely destitute of poetic merit, though the author's visible enjoyment of his task renders it not uninteresting reading.

		First, Trips provides a case study of aspects of the syntax of the Ormulum (a text written in the 12th century by Orm, an author of Danish origins), arguing that this text supports her central hypothesis that contact with Scandinavian caused the OV to VO shift.
		Trips also discusses stylistic fronting in Middle English, arguing that the fact that stylistic fronting occurs frequently in the Ormulum supports her claim that Scandinavian had a strong influence on the syntax of the northern dialects of English.
		For example, Trips claims that the fact that there is no object shift in the Ormulum supports the assumption that early Scandinavian had a strong influence on the syntax of the northern dialects of Early English.

	5 The V2 syntax of the Middle English dialects.
		Unfortunately, there are no manuscripts of northern prose before 1400, which makes direct comparison with southern dialects impossible; but evidence from poetry indicates a pattern unlike the Old English one.
		A recent investigation of the Ormulum (Morse-Gagné 1992), a very early Middle English poem written in Lincolnshire, an area of dense Scandinavian population, reveals that pronoun and full NP subjects are more alike than different in their behavior.
		We believe that the variability of inversion with pronouns in the Ormulum and other northern texts reflects contact of the Old English V2 system with a Scandinavian-influenced one and hope to show this in future work.

		Acoutu makes a fair point about the Ormulum (as it is spelt) although the idiosyncratic nature of the author's spelling system (he frequently doubles up consonants for no discernable reason) makes the evidence difficult to assess.
		The Ormulum is from Peterborough too, and the East Anglian area is noted for an unusual form of pronunciation.
