A.Z. Foreman | "A Dialogue between the Soul and Body" by Andrew Marvell, read in Early Modern English pronunciation @a.z.foreman74 | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 minute ago
For this one, I gave the Soul a more conservative accent (with a low MATE vowel, a distinct WAIT vowel, and an unraised TRAP vowel) and the Body a more innovative accent.
If you like this video and want to help me make more things like it, wherein I read texts in dead accents, consider making a pledge at my patreon:

There you can access my recordings before I make them public, and also get access to all kinds of subscriber-only stuff like my weekly readings of Shakespeare's sonnets and the King James Bible in various 17th century accents, and you'll get advance access to my public recordings as well (for example as of this writing, I have readings in Middle Dutch and 10th century Persian available well in advance to patrons).
