Two other important types of Anglo-Saxon poetry are the "lyric" and the "riddle". The lyric presents a more personal and emotional form of poetry than the epic. The riddle, a form of poetry in which an object or person is described in a rather ambiguous manner, demonstrates the Anglo-Saxon fascination for manipulating words. In the lyrics and riddles, the Anglo-Saxon expressed their terror of the northern winter, their awareness of the transitory nature of human life, and their reverance and fear of the sea because of its immensity, its mystery, and its cruelty.

The Roman Empire was divided into areas called provinces and Britain was one of the provinces. Each province was ruled by a governor whose job was to:
— introduce Latin which was the Roman language
— introduce Roman law
— act as judge at important trials
— collect taxes
