Explore "The Swan-Neck" by Charles Kingsley on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Evil sped the battle play / On the Pope Calixtus' day; / Mighty war-smiths, thanes and lords, / In Senlac slept the sleep of swords.
Harold Earl, shot over shield, / Lay along the autumn weald; / Slaughter such was never none / Since the Ethelings England won.
