Ships came from east-way,

All eager for battle,

With grim gaping heads

And rich carved prows.

They carried a host of warriors,

With white shields

And spears from the Westlands

And Welsh wrought swords.

The berserks were roaring

(For this was their battle),

The wolf-coated warriors howling,

And the irons clattering
