'And a young prince must be prudent like that'
S.Heaney, Beowulf
Afterward he was brought forth
young squire of the court, sent by God
to tend his people comfort, in dire-days distress
who long endured without the Lord of Life.
Ruler of Glory, gave the word it’s grace.
An esteemed warrior: his fame from far is spoken,
an offspring of Scyld from Southern Scandinavia.
