XLII.

Carcases [142d] of gold mailed warriors lay upon the city walls;
None of the houses or cities of Christians [142e] was any longer actively engaged in war; [142f]
But one feeble man, with his shouts, kept aloof
The roving birds; [143a]
Truly Syll of Virein [143b] reports that there were more
That had chanced to come from Llwy, [143c]
From around the inlet of the flood;
He reports that there were more,
At the hour of mattins, [143d]
Than the morning breeze could well support.
