A 13th Century German poem with a reference to sacrifices to Odin hanging on trees, collected by Jacob Grimm…
“The wolf sees a goat on a tree, and exclaims:
I see a fruit hanging,
That it has hair or bristles;
In any holy forest
Of Thuringia nor of Saxony
There could not grow
Better fruit on bough.”
“Ich sihe ein obez hangen,
ez habe har ode borst;
in einem heiligen vorste
ze Diiringen noch ze Sachsen
enkunde niht gewahsen
bezzer obez uf rise.”

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
- J.R.R. Tolkien
