And ring-giver to men,

his brother beside him,

Edmund the Ætheling,

won undying glory

In furious battle with

the blades of their swords

At Brunanburh:

burst through the shield-wall,

Hewed at the bucklers

with well-forged swords,

The sons of Edward…

…Many a man lay there,

Spreadeagled by spears,

northern warriors

Pierced through shields;

Scotsmen too,

Wearied with war ….

And so the brothers,

both together,

King and Ætheling,

returned to their home,

The land of Wessex,

triumphant in war.
