Stretched out did Ospak yawn, and cried aloud
Unto the lower table's merry crowd:
“Well fare ye, fellows! ye are glad to-night;

We be not merry here.”
Stretched out did Ospak yawn, and cried aloud
Unto the lower table's merry crowd:
“Well fare ye, fellows! ye are glad to-night;

And said: “Sooth, Ospak, but of little worth
Our talk was; yet these wandering churles are full
Of meat and drink, and need no rope to pull
Wild words and gleesome from them.”

Of meat and drink, and need no rope to pull
Wild words and gleesome from them.”
“Bring them here,”
Said Ospak, “they may mend our doleful cheer.”
Said Ospak, “they may mend our doleful cheer.”
