Until they misled to the shield-play 2040 Their dear companions and their own lives. Then speaks at the beer-drinking he who sees the jewel, An old spear-warrior, ...who all remembers, Spear-death of men (fierce is his mind) , Begins, sad in mood, of the young warrior 2045 The spirit to rouse by thoughts in his mind. War-bale to excite, and this word speaks : ' Mayst thou, my friend, know now the sword, Which thine own father bore into battle Under his helmet for the last time, 2050 The precious weapon, where the Danes slew him. 2051-2084.] BEOWULF. 63 The battle-place held, when dead lay Withergyld, After heroes' fall, the Scyldings braye ? Now here a son of some one of these murderers, In his weapons rejoicing, goes into the hall, 2055 Boasts of the murder and bears the jewel.
