Cami, in Part II, after number 4 we need to add in a section of Old English (also known as Anglo-Saxon) Literature, from roughly 700-900 A.D.Here they are: Caedmon's Hymn, Beowulf, The Dream of the Rood, and the Battle of Maldon.
And then after Chaucer add
William Langland's Piers Plowman
Gawain and the Green Knight
Thomas Malory's Morte d'Arthur
