As the sea flooding the flat sands / Flew on the sea-born horde, / The two hosts shocked with dust and din, / Left of the Latian paladin, / Clanged all Prince Harold's howling kin / On Colan and the sword.
Crashed in the midst on Marcus, / Ogier with Guthrum by, / And eastward of such central stir, / Far to the right and faintlier, / The house of Elf the harp-player, / Struck Eldred's with a cry.
