And men are at their markets, in their fields. And woo their loves and have forgot- ten thee; And thou art upright in thy living Where there is barely room to shift thy side. And all thine England hath forgotten thee ; And he our lazy-pious Norman King, With all his Normans round him once again, Counts his old beads, and hath for- gotten thee. Harold. Thou art of my blood, and so niethinks, my boy. Thy fears infect me beyond reason. Peace ! Wulfuoth. And then our fiery Tostig, while thy hands A...re palsied here, if his Northum- brians rise And hurl him from them, — I have heard the Normans Count upon this confusion — may he A leagu to bring with Willi: 1 back ? Harold. That lies within the shadow of the chance. Wulfnoth. And like a river in flood thro' a burst dam Descends the ruthless Norman— our good King Kneels mumbling some old bone — our helpless folk Are wash'd away, wailing, in their own blood — 'Harold. Wailing! not warring.' Boy, thon hast forgotten That thou art English.
