Answer:

The feature that most helps indicate to the reader that this modern translation was originally an Old English poem is alliteration

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the reference text, here is the text:

Read the passage from "A Shield."

A lonely warrior,I am wounded with iron,

Scarred with sword-points,sated with battle-play,

Weary of weapons.I have witnessed much fighting,

Much stubborn strife.
