+EN-ME Special Chars is a dataset of roughly 58000 aligned sentence pairs in English and Middle English, collected from the works of Geoffrey Chaucer, John Lydgate, John Wycliffe, and the Gawain Poet.
+
+It includes special characters such as þ. 
+
+There is mild standardization, but this dataset reflects the spelling inconsistencies characteristic of Middle English.
