CHAPTER IX

[Songs extracted from the prose narrative.]

[“Brand-whetter's life awry doth go.]

[Onund.]
“Brand-whetter's life awry doth go.
Fair lands and wide full well I know;
Past house, and field, and fold of man
The swift steed of the rollers ran:
My lands and kin I left behind,
That I this latter day might find,
Coldback for sunny meads to have;
Hard fate a bitter bargain drave.”
