The opening part of 'The Pearl' is one of those haunting bits of work that stick in your mind long after reading. It and the 'Gawain' I read many years ago in Tolkien's excellent translations under a single cover along with Sir Orfeo.
 Not quite sure I quite follow the finer points of the article though.
