THE BATTLE OF STIKLESTAD

Than before.

His eyes like lightning-flashes
Struck, where he turned them;
Knew him the bonders

And flinched.

“On, on, King’s men,
Cross-men and Christ-men!”’
Shouted he, and the army
Rushed forward.

As when the freshet
Bursts in the springtime,
Over the hillside

They surged,
‘Trumpet-notes, war-cries,
Flashing of weapons,
Banners uplifted —

“On, on!

Press on, King’s men,
Cut down the bonders!”’
Heard they, then bore down
The foe,

Pressed them retreating
Until the foremost

Stood where the hindmost
Stood before.

First of all Arnljot,
Iamtland’s chieftain,
Afrafaste, Tore,

Beside him.
