1 He selected fourteen champions among the Goths, the keenest he could find, and went to sea with them, having made sure of a skilful, experienced pilot, who knew the shallows and the deeps. Like a bird the good ship, tight- timbered, slender-necked, sped before the wind, and made such way that on the next day already the eager voyagers saw land, gleaming cliffs, hills towering, headlands stretching out to sea : the passage was ended. Lightly the ethelings sprang ashore, made fast the ship, sho...ok out their garments, saw to their arms, and gave thanks to God for that their seafaring had been easy. 1 Literally true : the North Sea is the " path of the swans" and to this day wild swans abound on the coast of Norway. IV THE WARDEN WHILE Beowulf and his friends were busy with their landing, thinking only of the work before them, the Skyl- dings' warden, he whose duty it was to guard the sea-cliffs and report any stran- gers that hove in sight, espied them from his high watch-place. Moved by curiosity as much as by duty, he rode down to the beach in great excitement, brandishing a powerful, huge lance, and demanded, in no gentle terms, to know the strangers' errand and nationality, before they could be al- lowed to proceed any farther into the land of the Danes.
