The best answer to the question: Which feature most helps indicate to the reader that this modern translation was originally and Old English poem? Would be: Alliteration.

Explanation:

As found in research regarding the poetic style in the earliest Germanic languages, including old English, and Anglo-Saxon poetry, these poems tended to use a type of rhyming style known as alliterative verse. Basically, this type of verse shows a structure in which each of the lines is divided into two half-lines and in each half-line there are two specially stressed words. Alliterative verse was the only style that was to be used by Old English poets and it is the characteristic of this particular poem.
