     ;THE bloody swath of Swedes and Geats and the storm of their strife�察�

were seen afar�察�how folk against folk the fight had wakened。 The ancient 

king     with    his   atheling    band     sought    his   citadel�察   �sorrowing      much�此�

Ongentheow earl went up to his burg。 He had tested Hygelac's hardihood�察�

the proud one's prowess�察�would prove it no longer�察�defied no more those 

fighting´wanderers nor hoped from the seamen to save his hoard�察�his bairn 

and his bride�此�so he bent him again�察�old�察�to his earth´walls。 Yet after him 

came   with   slaughter   for   Swedes   the   standards   of   Hygelac   o'er   peaceful 

plains   in   pride   advancing�察  �till   Hrethelings   fought   in   the   fenced   town。��1�А�

Then Ongentheow with edge of sword�察�the hoary´bearded�察�was held at bay�察�

and   the   folk´king   there   was   forced   to   suffer   Eofor's   anger。   In   ire�察  �at   the 

king Wulf Wonreding   with   weapon struck�察  �and   the   chieftain's blood�察 �for 

that   blow�察  �in   streams   flowed   'neath   his   hair。   No   fear   felt   he�察  �stout   old 

Scylfing�察  �but   straightway   repaid   in   better   bargain   that   bitter   stroke   and 

faced   his   foe   with   fell   intent。   Nor   swift   enough   was   the   son   of   Wonred 

answer to render the aged chief�察�too soon on his head the helm was cloven�察�

blood´bedecked he bowed to earth�察�and fell adown�察�not doomed was he yet�察�

and well he waxed�察�though the wound was sore。 Then the hardy Hygelac´ 

thane�撮�2�А  �when   his   brother   fell�察  �with   broad   brand   smote�察  �giants'   sword 

crashing   through   giants'´helm   across   the   shield´wall�此  �sank   the   king�察  �his 

folk's   old   herdsman�察  �fatally  hurt。 There   were   many   to   bind   the   brother's 

wounds and lift him�察�fast as fate allowed his people to wield the place´of´ 

war。    But    Eofor    took    from    Ongentheow�察      �earl   from    other�察  �the   iron´ 

breastplate�察�hard sword hilted�察�and helmet too�察�and the hoar´chief's harness 

to   Hygelac   carried�察  �who   took   the   trappings�察  �and   truly   promised   rich   fee 

'mid folk�察 �and fulfilled it so。 For that grim strife gave the Geatish lord�察�

Hrethel's offspring�察�when home he came�察�to Eofor and Wulf a wealth of 

treasure�察�Each of them had a hundred thousand��3�А�in land and linked rings�察�

nor at less price reckoned mid´earth men such mighty deeds� �And to Eofor 

he gave his only daughter in pledge of grace�察�the pride of his home。 

     ;Such is the feud�察�the foeman's rage�察�death´hate of men�此�so I deem it 

sure that the Swedish folk will seek us home for this fall of their friends�察�

his folk's weal�察�finished his course a hardy hero。  Now haste is best�察�that 

we go to gaze on our Geatish lord�察�and bear the bountiful breaker´of´rings

Wealth of jewels�察�gold untold and gained in terror�察�treasure at last with his

earl   must   carry   memorial   jewel。   No   maiden   fair   shall   wreathe   her   neck

there�察 �stretched   at   rest�察�their lifeless   lord�察 �who had   lavished   rings   of   old 

upon them。 Ending´day had dawned on the doughty´one�察�death had seized 

in woful slaughter the Weders' king。 There saw they�察�besides�察�the strangest 

being�察  �loathsome�察  �lying   their   leader   near�察  �prone   on   the   field。   The   fiery 

dragon�察�fearful fiend�察�with flame was scorched。 Reckoned by feet�察�it was 

fifty measures in length as it lay。 Aloft erewhile it had revelled by night�察�

and   anon   come   back�察  �seeking   its   den�察  �now   in   death's   sure   clutch   it   had 

come to the end of its earth´hall joys。 By it there stood the stoups and jars�察�

dishes lay there�察�and dear´decked swords eaten with rust�察�as�察�on earth's lap 

resting�察�a thousand winters they waited there。 For all that heritage huge�察�

that   gold   of   bygone   men�察  �was   bound   by   a   spell�撮�5�А  �so   the   treasure´hall 

could be touched by none of human kind�察 �save that Heaven's King�察�God 

himself�察�might give whom he would�察�Helper of Heroes�察�the hoard to open�察�

 even such a man as seemed to him meet。

within�察�wealth under wall� �Its watcher had killed one of a few�撮�2�А�and the 

feud   was   avenged   in   woful   fashion。 Wondrous   seems   it�察  �what   manner   a

wend from the world at last。 For��3�А�princes potent�察�who placed the gold�察�

grim the fate which thither carried our king and lord。 I was within there�察�

and all I viewed�察�the chambered treasure�察�when chance allowed me ��and 

my   path   was   made   in   no   pleasant   wise��   under   the   earth´wall。   Eager�察  �I 

seized such heap from the hoard as hands could bear and hurriedly carried 

it hither   back to   my   liege   and   lord。 Alive   was   he   still�察�still   wielding   his 

wits。 The wise old man spake much in his sorrow�察�and sent you greetings

balefire a barrow high�察�memorial mighty。 Of men was he worthiest warrior
