There was a scald who came with us from Denmark, and now with the full rising of the sun he took his harp and went along the stream bank singing the song of Dunheidi fight and so sweet was his voice, and so strong, that even Alsi's men gathered to hearken to him.
But now our Welshmen had been beaten back from the wings not easily, but for want of training and they were forced back across the brook, and there held our bank well, giving way no step further. The water kept them in an even front, against their will, as it were; and Alsi's men charged them in vain, knee deep in the stream that ran red.
But that would be less wretched for her than to wed Griffin." "This is no pleasant strait for the poor lady," said Havelok grimly. "Do none ask what she herself can wish?" "That is the trouble," said the earl, "for she is in Alsi's hand, and there is some old promise and oath sworn between him and Ethelwald her father that holds him back. Else had she been wedded to Griffin before now."
It is in my mind also that I should have been told of this journey, for I am surely the right man to have guarded my queen who is to be." At that Alsi's face went ashy pale, and I did not rightly know why at the time, but it seemed more in anger than aught else. But he had to make some answer. "We sent a messenger to you," he said hastily; "I cannot tell why he did not reach you."
Alsi's men grew very silent as they saw us come on, until we reached, through a storm of arrows that could not stay us, the bank of the stream, and then they raised a war song that roared and thundered among the hills as though the tide was coming up the valley in one great wave.
