It is the voice of everyday people, rather than of a self-conscious 'artist', that we hear in Caedmon's Hymn, and in such texts as Deor's Lament (also known simply as Deor) or The Seafarer.

Slavery, restrictions, and monopoly find defenders not only among those who profit from them but also among those who suffer from them. — Frederic Bastiat
