This dialect was spoken mostly in the south and west of England around the important monastery at Winchester, Hampshire Winchester , which was also the capital city of the English kings.

Well known poem s recorded in this language include Beowulf and Judith poem Judith . However, both these poems appear to have been written originally in other Old English dialects, but they were later translated into the standard Late West Saxon literary language when they were copied by scribes. The Winchester standard gradually fell out of use after the Norman Conquest in 1066. Monasteries did not keep the standard ... their own Latin textbooks and scribal conventions, and there was less need to copy or write in Old English ... twelfth century as the last scribes trained as boys before the conquest in West Saxon, died as old men.

    other uses2 Saxon The saxon is a rapidly spinning ground based firework that is basic in design and construction. There are slight variations but typically the saxon consists of two tubes which are filled with composition and have a clay plug at the end. They are joined in the centre by wooden dowel and pivot at point in the middle. It is driven by exhaust or vents located on the sides of the tube near the end plugs which are at right angles to the tube axis. Depending on the pyrotechnic compositions used, the saxons effect can range from tight, compact circles of delicate, lacey orange sparks to huge, brilliant silver and white displays twenty feet or more in diameter.
