breast�察�and fain was the rover�察�the guest�察�to depart�察�though more gladly he 

pondered on wreaking his vengeance than roaming the deep�察�and how to 

hasten the hot encounter where sons of the Frisians were sure to be。 So he 

escaped   not   the   common   doom�察  �when   Hun   with   ;Lafing�察─  �the   light´of´ 

battle�察  �best   of   blades�察  �his   bosom   pierced�此  �its   edge   was   famed   with   the 

Frisian earls。 On fierce´heart Finn there fell likewise�察�on himself at home�察�

wavering spirit bode not in breast。 The burg was reddened with blood of 

foemen�察�and Finn was slain�察�king amid clansmen�察�the queen was taken。 To 

their ship the Scylding warriors bore all the chattels the chieftain owned�察�

whatever they found in Finn's domain of gems and jewels。 The gentle wife 

o'er paths of the deep to the Danes they bore�察�led to her land。 The lay was 

finished�察    �the   gleeman's     song。    Then     glad   rose   the   revel�察   �bench´joy 

brightened。       Bearers     draw     from    their   ;wonder´vats;        wine。    Comes 

Wealhtheow forth�察�under gold´crown goes where the good pair sit�察�uncle 

and   nephew�察  �true   each   to   the   other   one�察  �kindred   in   amity。   Unferth   the 

spokesman at the Scylding lord's feet sat�此�men had faith in his spirit�察�his 

keenness of courage�察�though kinsmen had found him unsure at the sword´ 

play。   The   Scylding   queen   spoke�此   �Quaff   of   this   cup�察  �my   king   and   lord�察�

breaker of rings�察�and blithe be thou�察�gold´friend of men�察�to the Geats here 

speak such words of mildness as man should use。 Be glad with thy Geats�察�

of those gifts be mindful�察�or near or far�察�which now thou hast。 

     Men   say   to   me�察  �as   son   thou   wishest   yon   hero   to   hold。   Thy   Heorot

I ween with good he will well requite offspring of ours�察�when all he minds

cousin to the two young sons of Hrothgar and Wealhtheow�察 �their natural 

guardian      in  the   event    of  the   king's   death。    There    is  something      finely 

feminine in this speech of Wealhtheow's�察�apart from its somewhat irregular 

and irrelevant sequence of topics。 Both she and her lord probably distrust 

Hrothulf�察  �but   she   bids   the  king   to   be   of   good   cheer�察  �and�察  �turning   to   the 

suspect�察�heaps affectionate assurances on his probity。 ;My own Hrothulf; 

will surely not forget these favors and benefits of the past�察�but will repay 

them to the orphaned boy。
