THE LIFE AND DEATH OF SCYLD.
Lo ! the Spear-Danes' glory through splendid achievements The folk-kings' former fame we have heard of, How princes displayed then their prowess-in-battle.
Oft Scyld the Scefing from scathers in numbers 5 From many a people their mead-benches tore.
Since first he found him friendless and wretched, The earl had had terror : comfort he got for it, Waked 'neath the welkin, world-honor gained, Till all his neighbors o'er sea were compelled to io Bow to his bidding and bring him their tribute : An excellent atheling ! After was borne him A son and heir, young in his dwelling, Whom God-Father sent to solace the people.
He had marked the misery malice had caused them, 15 1 That reaved of their rulers they wretched had erstwhile " Long been afflicted. The Lord, in requital, Wielder of Glory, with world-honor blessed him.
Famed was Beowulf, far spread the glory Of Scyld's great son in the lands of the Danemen.
