When Nicholas had doon thus everydeel,
He thakked hire aboute the lendes weel,
He kiste hire swete, and taketh his sautrye,
And pleyeth faste, and maketh melodye.
From canterbury tales. Basically after he banged the miller's wife he slapped her ass, kissed her and pulled out his lute to play a tune. Is this punky?
That's early modern English.
I'm guessing they had a more punk sound at the time.

Modern English was also a post punk/new wave band.
The Canterbury tales is one of the oldest surviving pieces of written literature that was written in middle English.
I'm aware.
Gr8 thanks.
