ARNLJOT GELLINE

Wherever the wounded had crept for shelter,
Women’s hands
Succored them.

Among the men who the corpses scanned
Was Kalv Arnesson; his brothers

Found he alive. But they would not

Aid accept

From his hand.

Kalvy came up where Tore sat.
Lingering stood there, nothing saying.
“Here the King lies,’ whispered Tore;

“The King’s blood
Healed my wound.”

Held he his hand up in sight of Kalv.

Kalv said naught, away from him turning.
Then saw he Arnljot, stretched out before him,
The King’s body

Lay on his.

‘¢Great is the honor thou dost the King
‘Thus to rest him upon a robber.”
‘Tore uprose then: “ Was he a robber? —
Yet in faith
He served the King.”
