Isaloween, many older English words and forms are beautiful to me as well. There is definitely a group of people to whom archaic English appeals. Honestly, I don't think that Early Modern English or other dated English will ever truly disappear thanks to great and important literature such as Shakespeare's, the King James Bible, and countless other classic works. In academia and to the nostalgic, at least, it will always have a place.

By the way, please have a look at my blog if you get the chance; I've posted new poems of different sorts there. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.
